Paul Anthony Edwards
April 7, 1960 – July 12, 2022
Paul Anthony Edwards, 62, of Mechanicsville, VA went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, July 12, 2022. He was a beloved son, husband, father, and grandfather.
Paul was the embodiment of hard work, spending 40+ years as a power tool mechanic. He had a passion for muscle cars, camping, joking, his pool, spending time with his family and lending a helping hand to those in need. Paul was a man of faith, and his love of the Lord was a true testament to the great man that he was. He will be dearly missed.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 21 years, Stacy Edwards; two sons, Zachary (Malyn) and Cole; daughter, Taylor Koontz (Matthew); four grandchildren, James, Georgia, Ava, and Millie; beloved father and mother, Thomas and Margaret Edwards; two brothers, Tommy (Cindy) and Garland (Shannon); sister, Lisa Penny (Jeff); and many nieces and nephews.

I’ve known Paul for many years through my uncle Ethan and my dad Wayne, Paul was one of the most genuine people that I have ever met. I would hang around Staley as a kid and young adult and Paul was very funny and generous with his time. I remember this time I took a boat starter to him and he stopped what he was doing to help me figure out how to get the spring out of it, I tried to pay him but he refused the money even though it took almost an hour away from his busy schedule. I loved Paul and what he stood for, he was always talking about his family and never had a negative word for anyone. I’m 49 years old and have known him since my early teens again he was a great man and will be missed greatly 😢
Stacy and family, We are praying for you all at this most difficult time . We share in your love for what an amazing man Paul is and his example of kindness and love. He will be truly missed on earth though his memories will never live our heart.
Love y’all, Tammy and Paul
