Paul Arendt Obituary

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Paul Henry Arendt on February 23, 2025, at the age of 74, surrounded by his family. Paul was a loving husband, father, grandfather and friend to all who knew him. 

Born September 24, 1950 in Denver, Colorado. Paul was a keystone in the Colorado community. A talented athlete at Thomas Jefferson High School, Paul won the "Golden Helmet Award" in 1968 before playing quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes and leading the team to the 1969 Liberty Bowl. Paul then went on to serve the community as a dentist for 44 years, bringing smiles to all her served. 

Paul is survived by his beloved wife, Dianne Arendt; children, Kiersten Martinez, Lindsay Krause, and Zach Arendt; sons-in-law, Josh Martinez and Greg Krause; and his cherished grandchildren, Talya, Chaz, and Lennox Martinez, and Taylor Krause. Paul will be greatly missed, but he lives on in the memories of his generosity, endless love, and life of service to others. 

Please join us in celebrating Paul's life
