Paul Lloyd Calhoun

 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Paul Calhoun, a cherished father, grandfather, and husband, who left us peacefully surrounded by his loving family. Paul passed away to the sound of "Go Pack Go" chants, a fitting tribute to his unwavering support for his beloved Green Bay Packers.

Paul was born to Richard and Shirley Calhoun, who have preceded him in death, along with his infant brother Aaron. His life was a testament to dedication, love, and passion. As a proud member of the National Guard, Paul served his country with honor and commitment, embodying the values of service and patriotism.

Paul's devotion to Christ and his faith as a Christian were central to his life. His strong belief in God's love and guidance was evident in the way he lived, always showing kindness, generosity, and a deep sense of compassion to those around him. His faith provided him with strength and solace, and he shared this spiritual journey with his family and friends, nurturing their own faith and devotion.

Beyond his military service and faith, Paul found joy in being a karaoke DJ, where he was affectionately known as "Mountain Man." His vibrant personality and love for music brought smiles and laughter to many. His passion for martial arts was another significant aspect of his life, a discipline that he pursued with vigor and dedication.

Paul's greatest love, however, was his family. He is survived by his devoted wife Roberta, with whom he shared countless cherished moments. Together, they built a beautiful family that became Paul's pride and joy.

His legacy continues through his children: Alexis and Garrett, Korey and Rachel, Jeffery and Heather, Daniel, Derek and Katie, Tiffany, and Brandon and Anna. Paul was also a beloved grandfather to Ridge, Jacob, Ché, Konner, Summer, Kaleb, Miley, Ryder, Tilden, Evan, Emma, Chloe, Jaxon, Anthony, Owen, Aven, and Grayson. His grandchildren were a source of immense pride and happiness, and he leaves behind a lifetime of memories filled with love, wisdom, and joy. Paul is also survived by his three lifelong friends, Jeff Profitt, Dwayne "Spanky" Pendley, and Stephen "Steveo" Reeves, whose enduring friendships were a constant source of support and joy.

Paul's dedication to his family was unwavering, and his influence will be felt for generations. His passions for life, whether cheering for the Packers, engaging in martial arts, or entertaining as "Mountain Man," the karaoke DJ, were always infused with a love for those around him. He touched many lives with his warmth, humor, and generous spirit.

In honoring Paul's memory, we remember a man who lived life fully, loved deeply, and remained devoted to his faith. His spirit will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. While we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the remarkable life he led and the legacy he leaves behind.

Rest in peace, Paul Calhoun. Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.
