Ernest Paul Asal

June 25, 1926 — December 14, 2017

Ernest Paul Asal, 91, went to be with the Lord on December 14, 2017, after a brief illness. Born on June 25, 1926, in Cumberland County, Virginia, Paul was the son of the late Ernest Asal and Alice Alma Robbins Asal. A U.S. Navy veteran of WWII, Paul served on a PGM-31 and the President Hayes in the Pacific Theater.
He married his wife of 69 years, the late Frances Simpson Asal on March 8, 1946. Except for time spent in the service, and the last 16 months that he spent with this daughter in Valdosta, Paul lived his entire life in Cumberland County, Virginia.
