Age 74, went to be with the Lord on Thursday, March 9, 2017. He was born in Kalamazoo, MI, on September 22, 1942, the son of the late Donald and Ann (Boelman) Vermeulen. Paul was a kind, intelligent and loving man who had a strong faith in the Lord and a passion for family and friends. He gave freely of his time and was deeply involved with helping children at Camp Michawana. Paul was also a volunteer at the Kalamazoo Gospel Mission and Angel Tree. He was a hard worker who retired from the Upjohn-Pfizer Company after more than forty years. Paul loved his family and did his very best to provide for them. He was always involved in what his children and grandchildren were doing and leaves them with many wonderful memories to cherish; he was dearly loved and will be greatly missed. On December 6, 1962, he married his loving wife Scharlene Vermeulen who survives. Paul is also survived by three children, Geoff (Bonnie) Vermeulen, Mark (Kristin) Vermeulen and Kelley (Chad) Booden; eight grandchildren, Katie, Tyler, Emily, Sara, Audrey Vermeulen, Shelby (Dakota Blodgett) Booden, Kenedie, Carter Booden; cousins, relatives and friends.
