Paul Richard Klapper, age 77 of Goodlettsville, passed away February 2, 2023. Paul was a man of many talents, a character actor on stage, and a loving father at home. With three wonderful children, Alec, Caitlin, and Kyle, he was truly blessed. And for 44 years, he was happily married to Nancy, the love of his life. But what made Paul truly special was his kind heart and unwavering faith. He lived his life as a proud Christian, spreading joy and positivity wherever he went. He was a member of the First Baptist Church Hendersonville and served his country in the US Air Force for four years. He was always there for his family, offering a comforting word or a listening ear. His children were proud to call him Dad, and his wife was grateful to have him as her partner in life. Together they built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and meaningful memories.
