Paul D. Lapinski, age 74, of Union Lake, passed away September 30, 2020. Left to cherish his memory are the love of his life, JoAnn Bolek; his children: Lori (Adam) Sparks, Mark Lapinski, Meg (John) Rudolph and Ame (Sekani) Maloney; and his grandchildren: Aydan, Avari, Gavin, Gabi, Jordan, Austin and Anaya. Paul was preceded in death by his parents: Julian and Rita Lapinski.
Paul was a teacher for over 40 years, primarily in the Wayne Westland School District. He shared his love of history and respect for all opinions with many.
Paul was an avid golfer and enjoyed his Friday mornings with the Butt Crack of Dawn guys as well as frequent golf trips up north with the guys. He and JoAnn enjoyed travel. They always played a round of golf, playing at 186 courses around the world.
Paul's family was always a priority be it watching sports together or driving his grandkids to practice or school. He cherished the time he spent with them and he was their go-to guy for matters big or small. His grandkids will cherish the memories with their Pip/Papa and appreciate what a role model of unconditional love he was to them.
In the future when groups can gather, Paul's family will host a Celebration of Life gathering. Donations in Paul's memory can be sent to Open Door Outreach Center in Waterford.
