Paul Lawrence Erlach went to heaven on March 24th, 2023. He was a gentle man of many talents who was a lifelong learner of farming, science, and mathematics. Paul will be remembered for his endless devotion to his cattle, which he dutifully took over from his father. Paul was a faithful steward of the land and had extensive understanding of agricultural practices for his livestock as well as the protection of his pastures. He had a gentle nature, friendly smile, and a caring spirit for animals. He will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure to know him and his kind soul will forever live in our memories. He was met at heaven's gate by his father and mother, Dr. Stephen and Olga Erlach who preceded him in passing. He is survived by his brothers, Stephen (Robin), Raymond (Christine), and Gregory Erlach, as well as many nieces and nephews.
