Paul Samuel McIntire of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma passed away peacefully on July 23, 2024. Paul was born on July 26, 1960, to Josh A. McIntire and Sylvia Ivy Van Winkle in Stroud, Oklahoma. Although his roots were in Oklahoma, over the course of his life, he also called Lompoc, California and Azel, Texas home.
Paul attended college for two years as well as spent 4 years proudly serving in the United States Air Force.
A perfect day for Paul would be spending time with family and watching his nieces and nephews play together. He loved his family, and they were his whole heart. Something that would always make Paul laugh was his family telling him funny stories of the mistakes they made in the past, present, and what he would say that would most likely happen in the future. Most people would remember Paul for his big bear hugs and his kind, gentle heart. Paul taught others the importance of happiness and helping others and always had a level head when it came to giving advice to anyone who asked.
Paul loved fishing and enjoyed the peacefulness of the water. Paul enjoyed listening to music by Elvis Presley and Alan Jackson. Most would find him listening to songs such as How Great Thou Art, I Can Only Imagine and When the Saints Come Marching In.
