He was born in Buffalo, NY on June 26, 1928, the eldest son of Paul and Frances Cutler. He was a former longtime resident of Lake County before retiring to Key Largo and later to Fort Myers, Florida.

He was a World War II United States Army veteran. He was ordained as a Deacon in the Episcopal Church in Munising, MI on the Upper Peninsula, a ministry he continued when he moved to Key Largo and then to Fort Myers.

Paul remained very active in his Church and in his retirement community, Cypress Cove Senior Living, in Fort Myers, where he has served on different committees and was involved in many activities. He loved sailing, nature, playing golf, games and sharing his knowledge with everybody.

He loved life and enjoyed it to the fullest. Paul loved to travel, having taken many trips with his wife and family. He will be remembered by many and forgotten by none.

Mr. Cutler was employed by the Willoughby-Eastlake Public Schools, where he taught biology and was the head of the science department at Willoughby South High School. He was also a cross-country coach and assistant wrestling coach. He retired in 1985 after 31 years of service.
