Stunz Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Apr. 8, 2016 at 2:00 AM Posted Apr. 8, 2016 at 2:00 AM »  Social News Paul passed away April 6, 2016. Paul lived a remarkable, self-styled life as he rose out of a tough childhood. He was born December 4, 1926 in Canton, Ohio. After moving to southern California, Paul graduated from Hollywood High School. As a youngster Paul loved the outdoors, especially fishing. After high school, he attended the University of Utah, where he studied flying. Following university, Paul joined the U.S. Army Air Corps, became a pilot, signed on with Western Airlines in 1952. He was promoted to captain in 1962, and would spend the remainder of his working life with Western/Delta Airlines. Paul married Beatrice Werker in 1952 and together they built a family. Paul instilled a love of the outdoors in his three daughters, and the family enjoyed many camping and fishing trips to national parks of the American west. Paul loved tennis, golf, and collecting stamps, but no hobby could rival his love of flying. Paul always took every opportunity to pilot the latest and next larger aircraft. Before he retired, he flew DC-10s. His most treasured times were spent with his family in Yosemite National Park. Paul is survived by his daughters, Elizabeth Ryan (Betsy) of Moorpark, Calif., Paula Stunz of Medford, Ore., and Pamela Britton of Jacksonville, Ore.
