October 29, 2019
Paul M. Ahnert, 66, of Lancaster, left this Earth for his Heavenly home on Tuesday, October 29, 2019, surrounded by his loving family.

Above all else, Paul cherished spending time with his family. He was honored to be the father of Nina and Melissa and Pop to his granddaughter, Miah, and he adored his loving wife, Angela.
Paul truly enjoyed the simple things in life, particularly delicious food accompanied by a cold beer or a glass of wine, when in the company of his family and friends. A true gentleman, Paul will be remembered by all those who knew and loved him for his kind and gentle spirit, his integrity and selflessness.

Kramer of Ocean City, MD; his siblings: Toby J. Ahnert, husband of Heidi of Manheim; Luann M. Buehler of Lancaster, Kit W.

I did not know Paul well. (I was one of his patients.) I just wanted to affirm what it says in his obituary. He was always a complete gentleman and truly had a kind and gentle spirit.
