Paul Ray White Sr., who departed from this life on April 26, 2025, leaving behind an indelible mark on all who had the privilege to know him. Born on October 6, 1952, Paul graced the earth for 72 years, his journey one filled with compassion, strength, and unwavering love.

A man defined by kindness, Paul was the embodiment of a caring heart. He approached life with a warmth that transcended mere words, offering comfort through a gentle touch or a reassuring smile. Friends and family alike were drawn to his disciplined spirit; he believed in the power of hard work and integrity, virtues he instilled in those fortunate enough to be near him.

Paul's service in the Navy is a testament to his character, a chapter in his life where he stood resolute in the face of challenges, serving his country with honor and dedication. His time in uniform not only shaped his life but also enriched the lives of those around him, as he carried forward the values learned through military camaraderie and sacrifice.

In his presence, laughter was abundant, and the simple moments became treasured memories. Paul had a unique ability to connect with everyone he met, from the quiet child needing a friend to the weary neighbor seeking comfort. His love knew no bounds, extending to all facets of life, creating bonds that will forever endure beyond the shadows of life’s timeline.

As we gather to remember Paul, we celebrate the essence of a man who was more than just a father, a friend, or a sailor. He was a guiding light, a reminder of the beauty found in kindness, and a legacy of love that will echo through the hearts he touched.

Though the world feels a little dimmer without Paul, his spirit lingers among us, woven into the fabric of our memories—a tapestry rich with laughter, guidance, and unyielding support. May we honor his legacy by carrying forward the lessons he taught us, embodying the kindness, discipline, and love he exemplified every day of his life. As the sun sets on his earthly journey, we find solace in knowing that Paul Ray White Sr.'s heart will continue to inspire and guide us all.

Paul leaves behind a tapestry of memories that will forever be cherished. Family and friends alike will gather to celebrate his life, reflecting on the myriad ways he touched hearts and enriched lives. The visitation will be held at the Golden Gate Funeral Home in Fort Worth on May 7, 2025, from noon to 6 PM, followed by a funeral service beginning at 6 PM at the same location. A burial service will culminate the series of tributes on May 8, 2025, at 10 AM at the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery.

His legacy is not simply one of a life lived, but of a life given fully to the love of family, friends, and country.
