Richard Allen Paulson passed away Thursday morning, Sept. 20, 2007, after a lengthy illness. Richard was born on Oct. 25, 1942 to Allen and Irene Paulson in Kansas City, Mo. They soon moved to California where Richard was raised and educated in the San Fernando Valley. He later graduated from the Police Academy and was a Ventura County Deputy Sheriff from 1969 to 1988. He was taught to fly by his father and Clay Lacy and became an accomplished pilot at an early age. After retirement, he relocated to Idaho and fulfilled his love of flying thru the mountains and backcountry. He could often be found at the Santa Paula or McCall airports.

Richard's family would like to thank Mountain States Tumor Institute, Nevada Cancer Institute, and the St. Luke's staff for the kind, generous, and loving care given to Richard. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to MSTI or your favorite charity. A funeral service will be held on Monday, Sept. 24, 2007, at 1 p.m. at the Alden-Waggoner Funeral Chapel, Boise.
