William "Bill" Paulus, age 59, of Hammonton, NJ, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer on Saturday, September 26, 2026, with his family by his side.

Bill was born in Victorville, CA, but spent his youth in Collings Lakes, NJ.

He started working at a young age and became a jack-of-all-trades, acquiring skills in electrical work, plumbing, welding, mechanics, and just about anything else that came his way. He especially had a passion for operating ham radios with his club. His call sign was N2BDP.

Among his many projects, Bill enjoyed programming a holiday musical light show at his home and inviting the community to come and enjoy it. Bill was also a dedicated member of the Pine Barren Venom Jeep Club, along with his Wrangler, "Next Chapter."

Bill was predeceased by his mother, Jean Duncan, and her husband, Woody, as well as his brother, Chucky Duncan.

He is survived by his loving wife, Lynda Paulus (née Milazzo); his daughters, Crystal Paulus and Rachel Munno (James); his father, William C. Paulus (Marjorie "Binky"); his brother, Scott Paulus (Brandi); and his sisters, Nicolle "Nikki" Giacoppo (Warren), Heather Paulus, and Stephanie Rotellini, along with many nieces, nephews, and dear friends. He will also be sadly missed by his beloved fur babies.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend his viewing on Thursday, October 1, from 5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Marinella Funeral Home, 102 N. Third Street, Hammonton, NJ. A Celebration of Life service will follow at 8:00 p.m. Cremation will be private at the convenience of the family.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bill's memory to the Hammonton Cancer Foundation, P.O. Box 1066, Hammonton, NJ 08037.
