Paul D Christenberry

August 26, 1967 — October 24, 2021

Paul D. Christenberry, 54, of Westfield, Indiana died on Sunday, October 24, 2021, in Moultrie, Georgia as a result from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident.

He was born August 26, 1967, to Carolin "Suzie" Howk and the late Bobby Lee Christenberry. Paul was a loving and devoted husband to Dawn Christenberry. He selflessly put his family above all and cherished every moment with them. He was the most amazing father with a love so strong it will live on for many generations to come. Forever missed by his children Megan (Ray) Lazarich, Nicole Soweka, Tyler (Alyssa) Christenberry, Austin (Talia) Christenberry and Gavin Hargrave.

He was so proud to be called "Grandpa" to eleven very special grandchildren, Natasha, Natori, Brayden, Maci, Addison, Reese, Zoey, Rayven, Layla and Jaxton. They truly filled his heart with overwhelming joy.

Paul set aside his dreams of wrestling and teaching history to follow his families’ footsteps into the glass industry. With passion, dedication, and lots of hard work, he built a career of 35 years in glass manufacturing. He loved what he did, and the men and women that he shared his day with. He had a way of making the long hours seem more bearable with his quick witted sense of humor. And today, each would tell you the same that Paul was a smart, ambitious, determined, and resourceful man. He understood what it was like to feel valued and appreciated. He humbly led by example and not by authority. Because of his knowledge, loyalty, and commitment to the industry, today he is known, respected, and honored by everyone that knew him and he would modestly say "we did it together." Paul was patient, caring and generous. He never met a stranger and always offered help to anyone in need. Paul taught us all how to share the extraordinary beauty of the simple human heart. So, take those gifts that he blessed you with and do the same.

He was preceded in death by his father, Bobby Lee Christenberry, two brothers, Edwin David Christenberry and Robert Lee Christenberry, paternal grandparents, Leroy and Lucille Christenberry, maternal grandparents, Willene (Rogers) Howk & Loren D. Howk.
