Paul Warren Wanstrom, 45, passed away on August 2, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family. He was born on July 28, 1981, in Arco, Idaho, to David and Nancy Wanstrom.

On December 21, 2002, Paul married the love of his life, Cindy Jo, in Mackay, Idaho. Together they built a beautiful life in Moore, Idaho, where they raised their six cherished children: Faith Lynn, Paul Tyler, Jaden Ren, Emma Jo, Saige Elaine, and Parker Dean.

Paul was a hardworking man who found joy in the simple things in life. He loved fishing, hunting, farming, and riding horses. Whether in the fields, on horseback, or outdoors, Paul felt most at home in nature. Above all else, his greatest joy was his family. He treasured every moment spent with his wife, children, granddaughters, and the soon-to-arrive grandsons he eagerly looked forward to welcoming into the family, creating memories that will be forever cherished.

Paul will be remembered for his dedication to his family, his strong work ethic, his love of the outdoors, and the kindness and strength he shared with everyone around him. His legacy lives on through the family he loved so deeply and the many lives he touched.

He is survived by his wife, Cindy Jo Wanstrom; his children, Faith Lynn (Cody), Paul Tyler (Brenna Pam), Jaden Ren (Adison), Emma Jo (Isaac), Saige Elaine (Bracken), and Parker Dean; his beloved granddaughters Harper and Addie and soon-to-be-born grandsons; his parents, David and Nancy Wanstrom; his siblings; and many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

Paul’s memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 am, Saturday, August 8, 2026, at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Moore, Idaho Stake Center. The family will receive friends for one hour prior to services. Interment will be in the Pioneer Cemetery in Moore, Idaho and is being cared for by the Anderson Family Funeral Home.
