Paul Huse Obituary

Paul C. Huse
Feb. 12, 1932 - Jan. 28, 2017
Resident of Hollister
Paul Huse (also known as Jim) entered eternal life January 28, 2017. He shared life with Barbara Huse, his wife of 57 years. His spirit is carried out by his two children, Sharon (Ed) Muehlbacher and Don Huse. Paul loved to share stories of his four grandchildren; Cameron and Austin Muehlbacher, and Jessica and Trent Huse. They will dearly miss his stories and guidance.
Paul was one of four children raised by Claude and Ola Huse in Jenkins, Missouri. His childhood years were on the move, with each year finding him in a different school. He worked as a carpenter from 1949 to 1952, and then served in the Army for two years in Okinawa during the Korean war, winning an award as a champion rifle sharp shooter. Through the GI Bill, he earned his Bachelor's Degree at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo before earning a Masters in Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh. Paul spent the majority of his career working at Lockheed in Sunnyvale, Ca before retiring in 1990.
Paul was an avid golfer (former President of Ridgemark Men's Club), played in competitive Bridge Clubs, and made a hobby of tracking the stock market. He and Barbara were active members of Christ Fellowship Church in Hollister and enjoyed vacationing together in their RV at Pismo Beach.
Paul greeted everyone with a smile and a big hello. He will be missed.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, Feb 18, 2017 at 11:00 am at Christ Fellowship Church, 2066 San Benito Street, Hollister. Donations can be made to IBRF (International Brain Research Foundation), note in memo "Jessica Huse", PO Box 18909, San Jose, CA 95158.
