Paul J. DuBois was born March 26, 1960 in Albany, NY. He was a long time resident of New Scotland, Delmar, and Ravena, NY

He was 1 of 6 children of Lillian Elizabeth and John Claude DuBois.

Paul went to school at Clayton A. Bouton and studied at Hudson Valley College. He was a skilled carpenter and owned his own construction business for many years. He had many creative talents, one being able to create beautiful pieces of wooden furniture. Paul's big heart was always transparent and he was very generous to every person he meet throughout his life. He loved animals and especially his survived dog "Baby".

Paul's comedic personality graced and entertained his family, friends, and the entire community. He was well loved by all. He lived life in the moment and on his own terms but embraced all people who came into his life.

He was a joy to his family, friends, and acquaintances and always gave everyone a good belly laugh. He will be lovingly remembered always.

He was taken much too soon from us and we will miss him so very much. But we know he has been released from his pain and is forever free and at peace.
