Paul Andre Arthur St. Amour of Bedford, Massachusetts, died on May 8, 2022.

Paul was born on December 30, 1927 in Pawtucket, Rhode Island to Andeol St. Amour and Aline Benoit St. Amour. He attended East High School in Pawtucket. After high school, Paul joined the Unites States Navy where he served for two years.

He served in the Marines for 18 years, during which time, he was stationed in North America, Europe and Asia. Paul served tours of duty during the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

In 1967, Paul married Mary Jane Nassar. Upon his retirement from the Marine Corps, they moved to Bedford, Massachusetts. In Bedford, Paul and Mary Jane raised two sons, Paul Samuel and Anthony. Paul worked as an attorney and arbitrator until retirement in 1983.

In his leisure, Paul enjoyed art, hiking, fishing, boating and woodworking. During his life, Paul's passion was reading.
