Paul B. Becklin

Paul Bradley Becklin, was a steadfast pillar of warmth and joy in the lives of everyone who had the fortune to know him. Born on September 2, 1963, in the close-knit community of Cambridge, MN, Paul's early years were filled with the simple pleasures of small-town life. He was called home to the Lord on August 29, 2025, in Rochester, MN, after complications from heart surgery. His departure has left an immeasurable void in the hearts of his beloved family and friends.

Paul's life was a testament to the enduring power of faith and love. His marriage to his cherished wife, Tammy, was a source of profound happiness and mutual support. Together, they blended a beautiful family that included his daughters, Ali (Peter) Soleta of Eau Claire, WI, and Emily (Alex) Edgerton of Blaine, his step children Ashley (Ben) Lind of Stanchfield and Ben Stoffel of Cambridge, and seven grandchildren who lit up his world. The joy and laughter they shared will continue to resonate through their lives as a legacy of his profound affection.

His siblings, Shari (Dennis) Anlauf of Cambridge and David Becklin of Clearwater, FL, along with his brother-in-law Phil Schlenker of Cambridge, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and a wide circle of relatives and friends, will forever cherish the memories of Paul's humor, his comforting presence, and the countless moments of joy he brought into their lives.

Paul's dedication to his craft as a master electrician/project manager was evident through his long-standing work with Neo Electrical. A man of skill and integrity, he took pride in his trade and was respected by colleagues and clients alike for his professionalism and expertise.

His commitment to his work was matched only by his devotion to his faith. As a Christian, Paul lived a life that reflected the love and teachings of Christ, embodying kindness, patience, and an unwavering trust in God's plan.

Fishing, cooking, and reveling in the outdoors were among Paul's favorite pursuits. These interests were more than hobbies; they were avenues for him to connect with nature, to share his knowledge and passion with his family, and to create moments of togetherness that will be fondly remembered and sorely missed.

Described by those who knew him best as loving, funny, and faith-filled, Paul's character was a beacon of light that drew others to him. His infectious laughter, his eagerness to lend a helping hand, and his ability to see the good in every situation were hallmarks of a life well-lived. Paul's legacy is not solely in the memories he leaves behind but also in the love that will continue to flourish in the hearts of those he touched.

As we bid farewell to Paul Bradley Becklin, we take solace in the knowledge that he is now at peace in the eternal embrace of our Heavenly Father with his parents,Phillip and Delores Becklin; his sister, Jennifer Schlenker; and brother Bryan Becklin. We celebrate a life that was rich in joy, love, and faith, and we are comforted by the promise of our own reunion with him in the presence of our Lord.
