Paul Gage Obituary

Paul Gage Paul grew up on 16th Street in Hermosa Beach. He loved the beach and was an avid surfer. He attended Redondo High School until his junior year when the family moved to Rolling Hills and he graduated in 1963 from Palos Verdes High School. During this period he still spent his leisure time with his friends at the beach he loved, 16th Street. After high school, Paul worked at a few different jobs and was no longer a regular at the beach, but after about fifteen years, he moved back to 16th Street in Hermosa Beach and lived there for over 35 more years. He had many friends who frequented the beach there and he was most happy there. He could often be seen on the Strand watching the surf as well as the locals playing volleyball on the 16th Street courts. Paul is survived by his sisters, Pam Morton and Kelly Gage; brothers, Matt and Robert Gage; nephew, Scott Ayakatubby; and niece, Cameron Stevens.

We knew Paul as a gentle kind neighbor! Always willing to engage in a chat about everything. I saw him at work as a caterer at American and was always so helpful and willing to make all okay w/your food and beverages so my flight would run smoothly. He was very proud and involved with his whole family. Always remarking on their accomplishments. As a son I believe he was always vey devoted to his dad always going up Friday's for dinner w/him when he was alive. We were sad to see him move away but happy was moving into a lovely home close to his family. We are so grateful we knew him and are so sorry and sad for his passing..He will be remembered as a kind sweet soul!

Paul was our family friend and tenant on 16th Street for over 30 years. Paul loved to read books, watch sports and movies (Jurassic Park was a favorite). He liked going for walks, checking the surf and happenings in the neighborhood. He shared his place with his cat Scat and then Buddy his latest rescue cat. They were good companions. Paul was also a best friend to my now 94 year old mom Evie. They would take turns visiting each other and always greeted each other with a hug and kiss. Paul would help us and other neighbors keep watch and take in mail when we were out of town. He looked forward to Friday night dinners with his family at the Red Onion in PV and other family gatherings and holidays. His clean well-kept cars were also on his list of priorities that he enjoyed. Paul was a kind beautiful man that we will miss. His soft quiet energy is still on 16th Street. Thinking of Paul and his family.
