Paul Douglas Lindstrom, 76, passed away in Tampa, Florida, on October 8, 2026.
Paul was born on March 18, 1950, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Paul and Harriette Lindstrom. He grew up in Massachusetts and graduated from Weymouth High School and Worcester Technical Institute.
Following in his father’s footsteps, Paul proudly served his country in the United States Air Force. His commitment to duty and service to the nation will be remembered with gratitude and respect. Paul will be laid to rest at Sarasota National Cemetery with military honors in recognition of his service.
Paul made his home in Lithia, Florida, where he shared his life with his beloved wife, Violetta. He devoted considerable time to supporting fellow veterans and cherished his close relationships with family and friends, often reaching out to share in their lives. These connections were an important and meaningful part of his daily life.
Paul is survived by Violetta and his five brothers: Dave, Mark, Chris, Eric, and Richard. He also leaves behind his nieces, nephews, and extended family, all of whom hold a special place in his heart. Even while living in Florida, he made it a priority to remain close to those he loved.
A private service will be held at Robert Toale & Sons Funeral Home in Sarasota, followed by burial at Sarasota National Cemetery with military honors.
In honor of Paul’s military service and dedication to his fellow veterans, the family invites those wishing to pay tribute to consider donating to The American Legion, an organization that supports veterans, military families, and local communities.
Paul will be deeply missed by Violetta, his brothers, his extended family, and all who knew and loved him. His memory will live on through the family he cherished, the relationships he nurtured, and his example of service to his country—a tradition he proudly carried on from his father.
May Paul Douglas Lindstrom rest in peace. He will be remembered with love, gratitude, and honor.
