Paul A. Yribar

April 6, 1943 ~ February 27, 2019

Paul A. Yribar, my husband and best friend, unexpectedly passed away on February 27, 2019. He was born in Salt Lake City on April 6, 1943 to John and Mary Rose Yribar, the first of two children.

Paul graduated from Judge Memorial Catholic High School and afterward enlisted in the United States Air Force for four years. He was a dedicated member of St. Ann and St. Ambrose parishes, and proudly served numerous positions in the Knights of Columbus.

Paul married Judy Curtis in September of 1985, and was a wonderful stepfather to her three children.

Paul had a one-of-a-kind sense of humor. He enjoyed golfing and loved completing puzzles and crosswords.

He is survived by his wife, Judy; stepchildren Cristy Curtis and Nikki (Jeff) Kubinski; his grandchildren, Kylee Merrill, Paige and Cole Kubinski; and his sister, Rita (Bob) McElroy. Paul was preceded in death by his parents and his stepson, Kelly Curtis.

A funeral Mass was celebrated March 7 at St. Ambrose Catholic Church.
