Paul Brown Hansen Paul Brown Hansen died of a cardiac event Tuesday, July 31, 2018 at his home in Kaysville, Utah. He was 75 years old. Paul spent his life dedicated to God, his wife and his seven children. He was born in Hollister, California to Wayne and Leona Hansen and was the second of four children. He enjoyed his childhood in Ceres, California where he spent many hours playing baseball and basketball, working on the family farm and showing hogs at the county fair. He was an avid sports fan, cheering on his San Francisco Giants and BYU Cougars. As a young man, Paul served as a missionary for two years in the West Mexican Mission. He then returned to Brigham Young University for his undergraduate studies, where he met and fell in love with Judith Lynne Horne. They were married in the Salt Lake City Temple. Following their time at BYU, Paul completed both his dental and oral & maxillofacial surgery training at the University of California, San Francisco. Paul and Judy raised their family of seven children in Merced, California, where Paul built a successful oral & maxillofacial surgery practice. He spent 33 years pouring his heart into helping those he treated. Paul has been a faithful, dedicated member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints his entire life. He spent years of devotion in church service, including as bishop, Spanish branch president, and counselor in his local stake presidency. Paul served as First Counselor in the Fresno, California Temple presidency from 2007-2010 and then as President of the Fresno, California Temple from 2010-2013. Paul most recently served as a sealer in the Bountiful, Utah temple. From his days of service as a young boy to his later days of service in the temple, Paul will always be known for his compassionate, quiet acts of kindness and generosity. He taught by example how to “mourn with those that mourn… and comfort those that stand in need of comfort.” He lived for the welfare and love of his family and the ministering of others. Paul joins across the veil his parents, sister and granddaughter. He is survived by his wife, Judy, his seven children and respective spouses; Kristin and Gregory Fenn, Kevin and Julie Hansen, Cinda and David Wade, Stacie and Matthew Gruwell, Scott Hansen, Jennifer and Todd Fairbanks, and Amy and Zachary Whitney; his 21 grandchildren; and two of his siblings, James Hansen and Faye Pinkston.
