Letter: Thank you from Margaret Misch
From Margaret Misch
Francis Paul Misch passed away 2/26/2024 at the age of 76
We were married for 38 years. Bluffton, thank for your love, kindness, and support for the last two years where we have been living with my step daughter’s family.
Paul passed away from pneumonia Monday morning. My husband would say he would enjoy anything as long as we were together, which we did at Saint Mary’s Catholic Church, Shannon Theater, Bluffton Senior Center, bowling alley, Lunch Box, walking in the park, many hours talking with friends at Wendy’s, enjoying the plays at Bluffton University.
In Toledo We attended St. John’s Catholic Church. Paul was a member of Knights of Columbus where he earned the fourth degree. We had fun together serving others. We could spend hours with our kids, friends and family talking and eating at a restaurant.
Paul had the privilege of having many jobs. I even got to go at times. One of our jobs together was running a carousel at the Southwyck Mall in Toledo. Now that was fun! We will be celebrating Paul’s life March 5th and 6th at Jason Funeral home in Toledo Ohio. Again I thank the Bluffton community for your support during this hard and unexpected time.
Margaret Misch
