Paul Thomas
Gossard
Dec 4, 1962 — Jun 16, 2025
Paul Gossard, age 62, passed away peacefully at home on June 16, 2025. A true Parrothead at heart, Paul found joy in the simple pleasures of life—kicking back and listening to his favorite Jimmy Buffett tunes with his beloved animals by his side, most of whom were rescues he cared for deeply.
Paul shared many wonderful years with his long-time partner, Tracy Reed, whose love and companionship were a constant source of comfort and happiness in his life.
In addition to Tracy, Paul is also survived by his loving siblings: brothers Pat, Ron (Cindy), and Douglas (Regine); and sisters Kathy LeFever and Shirley Martin. He was a proud and loving uncle to Jennifer (Tom) Fisher, Brandon Gossard, Jacob and Nick (Jenny) Martin, and Sean and Madeliene Gossard. He also leaves behind dear friends Kellie Forkin and Beth Tirro, as well as Tracy's family—her sisters Vickey (Dennis) Heberlein And Lesley (Edward) Alexander and nephew EJ—all of whom will carry his memory with love.
Paul was preceded in death by his parents, William and Barbara (Janectic) Gossard, and his brother-in-law, Ken LeFever.
Paul will be remembered for his gentle spirit, his deep compassion for animals, and his laid-back, kind-hearted nature. His legacy will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
