He was born August 19, 1953, in Elgin, Illinois the son of Paul and Laura (Blazer) Behan. He worked over 35 years at White Pines State Park near Oregon.

He was predeceased by his parents. Paul is survived by his children Kandi Behan of Madison, Wisconsin and Michael Behan of Austin, Texas, grandson Kaden Stumpf, and sister Katherine Behan of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
