Paul was the cherished father of Timothy Callahan and his wife, Amy, and Stephen Callahan and his wife, Courtney. He was the adored Papa to his grandchildren Allison, Joey, Brooke, and Avery Callahan, who brought immense joy to his life. Paul also leaves behind many beloved nieces and nephews.

A proud patriot, Paul served his country with distinction as a Sergeant in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War, earning a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart for his bravery. His military service remained a source of great pride throughout his life.

After retiring from the Army, Paul worked tirelessly for his community as an on-call and volunteer firefighter for the town of Foxboro. He also dedicated many years to the U.S. Postal Service in Brockton.

Paul was a man of many passions. An avid golfer and a long-standing member of the Foxboro Country Club, he spent countless happy days on the course. He had a green thumb and delighted in gardening, often sharing his homegrown tomatoes with friends and neighbors. Always ready to lend a hand, Paul was known for snow plowing driveways and helping the town during harsh New England winters.
