Paul Edward Huntsman

January 5, 1966 - June 16, 2025

Paul Edward Huntsman, 59, of El Cajon, California, passed away on June 16, 2025.

Born on January 5, 1966, in Los Angeles, Paul was welcpomed into the world by his loving parents, Gene and Patricia Huntsman. Not long after his birth, the family relocated to San Diego, and in 1976, they moved to El Cajon, where Paul grew up and forged lifelong memories.

From a young age, Paul had a knack for machines and a love for the outdoors. He treasured his countless days riding motorcycles in the California desert and fondest memories of family trips to San Felipe, Mexico, where he enjoyed the freedom of riding along the open beaches, hunting rabbits at dusk, and playing in the fast-moving tides that swept through the coast-adventures that defined his youth and remained among his fondest memories.

Paul often recounted childhood days spent playing in his backyard "treehouse," the elevated wooden fort that became the launchpad for endless mischief and imagination. He approached life with that same sense of curiosity and courage throughout his years.

He was tall in stature and always quick with a smile-even when life didn't go as planned. Paul was easygoing, generous, and humble. His kindness was evident in his many friends.

Paul is survived by his parents, Gene and Patricia Huntsman; his sister, Kristen (Huntsman) Sullivan; his children, Elizabeth (Huntsman) Keily and Brandon Kyle Huntsman; and his beloved grandchildren, Brandon, Tyler, and Ayce.

He is missed and will be forever remembered by his family and friends.

His celebration of life will be held on July 6, 2025 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the home of 9208 Los Coches Rd Lakeside CA 92040 Please contact Elizabeth he's Daughter at 619-891-2311 for more information and if you plan to attend.

It is with a heavy heart I received this information. My heart felt prayers go out to the entire family. I know the pain is real but the sting is gone. I believe Paul is with our Lord and Savior. I will see you at the East Gate my friend.
