Obituary of Paul Wilcox Soule

Paul Wilcox Soule, born in Milbank South Dakota in 1938, died unexpectedly on August 16th, 2024. His first job as paperboy in Webster carried over into his lifelong work as a Printer for the St. Paul Pioneer Press.  He leaves behind a beautiful legacy of love and faith. A man of unmatched kindness, Paul never met a stranger.  Always looking to share a story, play a game of cards, or hang out at his cabin of 35 years in Brainerd.  He and his devoted wife Rozella (Jacobson) shared 66 years of marriage, residents of Brooklyn Center and attendees of Prince of Peace Lutheran church for over 55 years.  As a loving father, adoring grandfather and great-grandfather, Paul made family his priority.  Paul’s faith assures us that he is now in fellowship with the Lord. Paul is survived by his wife Rozella, Son Rick (Judy), Jay (Carla), Michael (Alice), Susan (Sabinus) Ihejirika.  Sister Mary Miller, Sisters-in-law Beverly Soule, Colleen Ringgenberg (Allen) and families. Grandchildren: Bill (Amanda) Walker, Tyler (Veronica), Matthew (Melissa), Nathan (Madison) Soule Pierce, Courtney, Gabriell Soule, Spencer and Skyler Ihejirika. Great Grandchildren: Katelyn, Trenton, and Evan Walker, Ryker, Leon, Jacob and Everly Soule. As well as other “adopted” neighborhood children and grandchildren. Preceded in Death by Parents Robert and Ruby Soule, Brother Wayne, nephew David and Niece Donna.   A celebration of his life will be held on Friday, September 13th at 11:00 AM, visitation one hour prior at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Brooklyn Park.
