Chief Petty Officer, Paul Brian Stover, NAVY (Ret.), age 64 of Jacksonville, FL, lost his courageous battle with brain cancer, on Saturday, September 16, 2017, but cancer never dimmed his smile and good humor.

He joined the Navy in 1970 and served for 26 years. He retired as an E7 from the USS John Hancock in Jacksonville, FL. Over his years of service, his tours of duty took him to 60 countries and several duty stations. He took great pride in serving his country.
He loved his family and was a very caring & giving man. He loved his Green Bay Packers & WI Badgers. He enjoyed going back to WI in the winter to snowmobile. He liked to play Scrabble, telling jokes and stories of growing up. A little-known fact about Paul, back in the day he was a wonderful piano player.
