Paul Allen Kroon

Paul Allen Kroon, born November 10, 1958, joined his beloved brother into eternal rest on May 3, 2026 with his faithful canine companions, Coy and Min, by his side. Paul was known to have an exemplary work ethic and was dedicated to serving others, even at the expense of his own health. He was proud of his 12 years of service in the United States Air Force and his 22 years working as a corrections officer in Wisconsin.
He is survived by his seven children; Chad (Michelle), Kevin, David, Jody (Wendy), Jeremy (Vanessa), Amy and Savannah; grandchildren and four great-grandchildren, five siblings and many nieces and nephews.

Paul’s legacy is built on hard work. “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord. They will rest from their labor.” Rev. 14:13
