Paul Tanguay

March 27, 1956 — October 1, 2022

Paul Tanguay, 66, passed away on October 1, 2022, in Titusville, FL. Paul was born on March 27, 1956 in Berlin, NH to Louis Tanguay and Carolyn Tanguay.


Paul graduated from Gorham High School in 1974 and went on to earn an Associate's Degree from New Hampshire Vocational Technical College in 1976. He started his career as a carpenter before becoming a millwright. For the last twelve years Paul was a Project Superintendent at Great Southern Constructors in Deland, FL. Paul was a skilled craftsman who took pride in his work, which included building the Mount Washington Observatory, the Androscoggin Valley Hospital, and Universal Orlando's Rockin' Roller Coaster. He also worked on projects in Taiwan and mainland China.


Paul was best known for his sense of humor and practical jokes. He was a collector of all manner of weird things and loved to give them as gifts in hopes they would spark interesting conversations. He had a deep and abiding love for nature, taking advantage of every opportunity to hunt and fish in his beloved woods of Maine and New Hampshire. Paul was happiest in the company of his children, siblings and cousins, with whom he maintained close relations throughout his life. Paul was an avid traveler and lover of dogs.
