Paul Thomas Chute has left the building, also known as this plane of existence.

He was born February 27, 1957, in Havre, Montana, and he passed March 31, 2026, due to an extended illness.  Paul was a father, grandfather, brother, son, uncle, fly fisherman, hunter, motorcycle mechanic, and an amazing rockin' drummer.

He really enjoyed his summers as caretaker at Fresno Lake.  He did everything there that he liked to do … playing music and fishing, just to name a few.

Paul played in many bands, the last being Borderline in Havre.  Making rock n roll was one of his greatest pleasures.  He is now rockin with Keith Moon, John Bonham, and many other late drummers.  Paul is missed.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Donald and Marian Chute.  Paul is survived by his brothers and sisters, Christine, Tim, Mary, Mark, and Toni; his children, Kaycee, Sasha, Donald Chase, and Ethan; and all of his cousins.

In lieu of flowers or memorials, just go down and support your local bands.  Holland & Bonine Funeral Home was entrusted with arrangements.
