Patricia "Pat" A. Paulson's Obituary
Patricia “Pat” Ann Paulson, age 76, passed away in Muskegon, MI, on Thursday, July 13, 2023. Pat was born in Tyler, MN, on December 9, 1946, to Edmund and Mary (Wigton) Demuth. On October 30, 1965, she married Gordon “Red” Paulson at Central Assembly of God in Muskegon, and they spent 57 wonderful years together. Pat worked as a secretary for a few different companies over the years, including PALCO, Reid Tool, and Central Assembly of God. Pat loved flowers, trees, rocks, birds, and anything to do with nature. She was blessed to be able to travel to many places over the years on mission trips with the church, as well as getting to spend winters with Red in Mission, TX. More than anything Pat enjoyed spending time with family, and she always made it a priority to attend family reunions on both the Demuth and Parsons sides of the family. Pat will be lovingly remembered by her husband, Red Paulson; two daughters: Anne-Marie (Robert) Poehl and Wendy Sue (Michael) Swartz; five grandchildren: Robyn Anne (Tyler) Miedema, Zachariah Robert Poehl, Andrew Gideon Poehl, Charlie Cooper Swartz, and Henry Michael Swartz; three great-grandchildren: Juden Scott Miedema, Harley Anne Miedema, and Whitley Jane Miedema; four brothers: Dennis (Carol) Demuth, Butch (Deb) Demuth, Rick Demuth, and Tim (Debbie) Demuth; two sisters: Gloria (Gene) Wertheimer and Sharon (Bradley) Szejn; two sisters in-law: Ellen Demuth and Roberta (Droskie) Adams; and many nieces and nephews. Pat was preceded in death by her parents, Edmund and Mary Demuth, and her brother, Donald Demuth. A MEMORIAL SERVICE for Pat will be taking place at 10:30 AM on Tuesday, July 18, 2023, at Central Assembly of God (896 Home St, Muskegon, MI, 49442), with light refreshments to follow.
