March 21, 1973 – March 20, 2022
Paul Eric Gosselin, age 48, left this life on the evening of March 20, 2022 due to a tragic motorcycle accident.
Paul was born in Houston, Texas and was raised in Friendswood, Texas by Jerry & Marina Gosselin. When he was married, he moved to Deer Park, Texas with his wife until 2020 when they moved to Dallas, Texas. Paul worked as a civil designer at Spiars Engineering in Plano, Texas.
Paul married Jennifer on November 16, 2013 and through marriage gained three kids, Jeffrey Brannon, Jacob Brannon and Jessica Brannon and loved them as his own. The love and friendship between Paul and Jennifer is the type of relationship everyone aspire to achieve. They were totally different yet perfect for each other. Even through the tough times things always had a way of working out as they were each other’s best friends. It all started with a friendship and blossomed into the most amazing love anyone could have for each other.
For those of you who knew Paul, you know that he was the life of the party. He without a doubt would always know where to find the best food in town and never met a stranger, impacting every person he encountered. Paul had a gift of making those around him feel more loved and welcomed in just five seconds than they ever had in their entire life. He was man who fought for those he loved, continuously lent a hand to those less fortunate, spent everyday like it was his last and enjoyed a nice cold IPA – no matter what time of day it was. Paul’s love for his family and wife is something that should be admired. He valued family time more than anything and made sure if he couldn’t be with them they knew he was thinking of them. Paul’s life was taken tragically and way too soon but we know and believe in God’s sovereignty. We thank Jesus, in the last moments of Paul’s` life he was able to spend it doing what he enjoyed most, riding his Yamaha Raider after enjoying some music in Deep Ellum in Dallas, TX. We love and honor the life you lived and for one last time, AYYYEOOOOO!!!!!!

You made my Sister happy, much respect to you Paul.
Your smile and laugh will be so missed at Spiars. You made an impact on everyone you met.
My condolences to Jennifer, his parents and Paul's family & friends. It was a blessing to know him. He was a great colleague and my buddy. I will miss him greatly.
Que Dios de bendiga, mi hermano.
You will be missed, but never forgotten. I am so grateful we got to meet Jen and Paul's family at a wedding and got to catch up a bit. Though distance made it hard to see each other. The memories will always be cherished. I have to share a couple…the comic book Bible you gave me during a visit…getting SO excited over a dusting of snow…and even more excited when we could have snowball fights or build snowmen. I hope you killed the 'mama lizard' I was sure I found behind the house…Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and our deepest sympathy. Hopefully, we can see you as an example and bring kindness, love, and laughter to all those that God puts in our path. Wishing we could be there.
My brother. I will always cherish the time great times we had together. Whether it was conversation about music, types of different beers that I didn’t even like or just life in general. You became a wonderful spirit that entered my life at the perfect time. We will always love you and will always love you. Miss you brother. Until we meet again.
I love and miss you so much. My heart aches. I know you are with the angels now. I treasure the times we have spent together making beautiful memories that I’ll never forget. Rest In Peace my wonderful cousin.
Im so sorry for this loss, my condolences. Paul would always sit and listen to my stories from Bolivia when I first got here, he was easy and joyful to talk to. Thankyou Paul.
I know that we did not see each other all that often. I hold the memories that I have of you very dear. The times that Uncle Jerry, Aunt Marina, and you were able to come visit. The Christmas you came up and saw snow for the first time. You were soo excited. We all were so lucky to have met your wonderful family when you came up for Auntie Carmel's wedding to Bob. I cherish every moment spent with family. I am so happy I was able to make some great memories of you to keep forever in my heart. My prayers and love go out to everybody you have touched in you're short life during this tough time. Love you always dear cousin you will be greatly missed ❤.
Our hearts break. You are truly missed. But you have finished the earthly race & received the Crown of Glory, resting in the Arms of Sweet Jesus. Adieu for now we will see you in Glory.
What a gift you were for those who knew & love you. Piece through Christ for all of family &friends.
My condolences to Jennifer and family. We shared conversations about motorcycles and work. Rest in peace.
Our condolences to all that had the pleasure of knowing Paul, he will be missed by so many but never forgotten.
We remember Paul as an active kid who lived across the street 50 years ago. Our friendship endured with Jerry and Marina as both families moved to other neighborhoods and Paul and our kids grew into adulthood.
We kept up with Paul’s life through his loving parents who were so proud of his happiness in marriage and success in his career.
We mourn with you and pray that God will bring comfort and peace.
Paul, you really were the life of the party. You were so fun to be around and you always made it a point to make other people feel included. I admired your passion, excitement, determination, and most of all your ability to connect with anyone and everyone. No matter who you met, you made it a point to make them feel heard and know that you cared for them. I feel lucky to have gotten to know you, even if it was only for a short time. We love you very much and miss your laughter.
To Jennifer and all of Paul’s family, I am praying that God‘s peace and comfort will surround you every day as you walk this journey of loss. Paul was a wonderful guy. Every time that I talked to Paul, his love for his family and especially for you, Jennifer, shined through his conversation. He loved you. Paul was fun to work with and he always shared his smile with everyone he met. If you were able to sit by Paul at a Spiars event , you were the lucky one! I loved listening to his stories and seeing how happy he was with his place in life. He truly will be missed! He’ll always be remembered.
Paul will be missed here at Spiars Engineering. You were part of the fabric of our culture, welcoming, kind and hard working. Condolences to Jennifer and the family. We will miss you greatly!
Paul was a friend, a co-worker, a fellow biker, and all around good people. My condolences to his family, his loving wife, just know that you are not alone in this challenging time. We will miss you man…
Paul was a friend, a co-worker and fellow biker but most of all Paul was an awesome guy it was an honor to know him. Prays and condolences to Jennifer and the family he will be missed greatly .
I’ve known Paul for a very long time. Growing up together as neighbors and friends, through our teenage years and into adulthood. From our awkward adolescence into grown ups with responsibilities. You will be missed greatly, my Friend! My family and I will keep you and your wife and family in our prayers. Rest in Paradise
Praying for Peace, Comfort and Strength during this most difficult time. Paul Eric is now present in the Everlasting Joy of Our Lord along with those who have preceded us.
