Gerhardt
Paul William was born April 16, 1928. He left to be with his Holy Father January 11, 2018 at the age of 89.
Paul’s cherished legacy is that of his loving family: his wife of 63 years, Virginia L. (Harris); his children, David R. and Sara (Lach); the late Richard P. and Sandra L. (Cahall); his grandchildren, Joycelyn, Paula, Daniel, Michael, Joseph and Amanda (Charles); his great grandson, Wyatt Richard, and his niece/nephew Carol (Gerhardt) and Dr. Thomas Abderhalden.
Beloved family members who preceded Paul in death include his parents, John William “Elmer” and Leona Anna Marie (Bosken) and brother/sister-in-law Carl F. and Marjorie “Mickey” (Houston).
Family and his Parish, St. Antoninus, sustained Paul’s abiding faith in God. Paul enjoyed collecting things including stamps and coins and he was a master at putting together intricate puzzles with thousands of pieces. Just when the family would think that they had finally found a puzzle to stump him, he would surprise everyone with his proud announcement that the puzzle had been completed.
