Paul Robertson

Paul Gerard Robertson, 52, of Dilworth, formerly of Fergus Falls, was raised into the loving arms of Jesus on Saturday, January 13, 2018, at Sanford Health in Fargo, ND, surrounded by his loving family, after a courageous six-month battle with lung cancer and suffering a stroke.

Paul, P.R. or Pauly was born to Francis and Deanna Robertson on November 2, 1965, in Wheaton, MN.  He attended Our Lady of Victory Catholic School and graduated from Fergus Falls High School in 1984.  Paul held a variety of jobs including welding, carpentry, bartending, masonry, and selling real estate while living in Arizona. Paul had a distinctive laugh and enjoyed spending time laughing with his friends and family.  Paul loved to tinker on projects, hunt with Tank and fish. One of his favorite “fishing holes” was a lake dubbed “nursing home lake”.

When you drive by any lake, remember Paul and say a prayer.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Victoria & John Robertson and Joyce & Dean McNelly.

Paul is survived by his parents Francis (Mary) Robertson of Glenwood and Deanna McNelly-Robertson of  Maple Lake; siblings, Randy of Fergus Falls, Carolyn (Patrick) Roberson of Fayetteville, North Carolina, Jesse (Amy) Robertson of  Bemidji, and Kelly (Gary) Vance of Maple Lake; nieces and nephews, Zachary (Shelbie), Jacob, Luke, Kacyn, Samantha, Allyra, Justine, Payton, Jaxson, and Henry; aunts, uncles, cousins, and a circle of friends, who were supportive and loving.

He will be remembered as a loving uncle, brother, son, and friend who loved the outdoors.
