Please accept my deepest sympathies. Pick and I were good friends many years ago when we were just teens learning to drive, making friends and growing up in Montgomery. Pick was such a loyal and good friend with a huge heart and the world is much the less without him. Rest in Peace My Friend

Paul was a good friend with a good heart. We miss him very much at work. He always had something funny to say or a story to tell that made us laugh. It is still very difficult for us to believe he won't be back in the office with us. Rest in merciful peace, Paul.

Most of my memories of Paul from our youth. From playing basketball at night on the back patio to studying for an accounting final. He was a good man and a standup guy and he'll leave a hole in our hearts forever. God bless he and his family.
