Paul Curtis Mumma - (Record-Eagle) View/Sign Guest Book
TRAVERSE CITY — Paul Curtis Mumma, 65, passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by family on Monday, May 14.
Paul married Frances Alder in 1963. They lived in Detroit until Paul was drafted in 1966 and after returning from Ft. Hood, TX, he began his career with Allstate Insurance Company. He retired from Allstate as a Senior Account Agent in June 2000.
Paul was an longtime active member of Grosse Pointe Congregational Church. When his daughter
Erica and husband John Griffiths moved their young family to Traverse City, Paul and Fran moved "Up North" in 2003 with his mother Grethe, followed soon afterward by daughter Kirsten, reuniting the family once again.
During the 35 years in Grosse Pointe Woods, Paul was an active member of the community, serving on the GPW Parks and Recreation Commission for 25 years. He was also a member and officer of civic organizations like the Lakeshore Optimist Club and the Exchange Club.
No one could spin a yarn like Paul, and his great sense of humor and hearty laugh paved the way to many close friendships. Paul loved boating and spoiling his three grandchildren, Meghan, Caroline and Jack.
Memorial Services will be held in Traverse City on Friday, May 18, in the chapel at Central United Methodist Church at 11 a.m., and on Friday, May 25, at Grosse Pointe Congregational Church at 11 a.m.
Paul requested that memorials be directed to either church or Munson Hospice.
The family is being served by the Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home in Traverse City.
