Paul Kitwin Winiarski


He was a nationally-recognized network engineer.

He was witty and fun-loving, and a true gentleman — kind, sensitive, thoughtful, and humane.

He attended SS. Peter and Paul’s and Loyola. He was in Army Intelligence.

Paul was born Jan. 21, 1966, in Amherst, Ohio, and grew up in Mankato. He is survived by his wife of 14 years, Suzanne; his mother, Jeanette of Mankato; brothers Chuck (Dana) of Amherst and John of Mankato; sister, Catherine (Duane) of Huntington Beach, CA; nieces Megan and Elizabeth.

He was preceded in death by his father, Charles Winiarski; grandparents Catherine and Jim Deuser.

Paul was a devoted animal rights advocate. He and Suzanne participated in the foster program at PAWS (Progressive Animal Welfare Society).

Memorial services will be at a later date.
