Paul Potter Obituary
July 20, 1956 ~ February 2, 2018
Our loving brother, Paul, passed away peacefully on Friday,
February 2, 2018. Born in Seattle, raised on Capitol Hill, he attended St. Joseph's School, Seattle Prep and Seattle U. A Hiller in its truest form.
Paul had a love for the outdoors, especially at his property on the Chewuch River in Winthrop, Washington. He retired from
Safeway after 43 years of service. He was an avid fan of the Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders and Huskies, often watching the games with family and friends at the Roanoke. Paul was a man of few words with a large heart. He will be greatly missed by all.
Paul is preceded in death by his parents, Gene and Sue Potter. He is survived by his brothers and sisters - Carol, Stephen (Kelly), Anne, Betsy, Julie (Lamont), Joe, John (Margy) - his nieces and nephews - Aunt and Uncle Mary & Darrell Miller and many close friends.
