It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Paul Huston, age 89, of London, Kentucky on Saturday, November 30, 2024. A devoted family man, Paul found his greatest joy in loving his family, fishing, his faith, and the steadfast companionship of his beloved dog, Bud.

Together, they built a home filled with love, laughter and countless memories that will forever remain in the hearts of their children and grandchildren. Paul devoted his life to teaching, mentoring, and serving others.

Paul proudly served his country as a member of the United States Air Force. His time in service shaped his strong sense of duty, integrity, and love for his nation, qualities he carried with him throughout his life.
