We are saddened to announce the passing of Paul Bland, who left this world on March 13, 2025, in Wetumpka, Alabama. Born on September 5, 1955, Paul lived a life full of laughter, love, and a lot of air conditioning.

Paul was the son of David Paul Bland and Lula Mae Bland (Scottie). In 1993, he married the love of his life, Angela Bland (Angie), and together they raised three wonderful children - Lane Purvis, Victoria Barnes, and Landon Bland.

Paul spent most of his career working in refrigeration/HVAC, with a long and distinguished 28-year tenure at Winn Dixie. When he wasn't fixing air conditioners, Paul could be found cheering on his beloved University of Alabama football team.

Paul attended Central Alabama High School and continued his studies at John M. Patterson Technical College. He was a lifelong learner and always had a knack for fixing things - including the occasional broken heart.

Paul leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter that will be cherished by all who knew him. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and anyone who ever had the pleasure of sharing a laugh with him.
