Our deepest sympathy to all of Paul's family. He will be greatly missed by his HES family. I will miss his great smile and kind words he always had. My children remember him fondly and his cool car that all the kids wanted and asked him questions about often. He was a great man. Peace and love. The Morrison Family, Hebron

I will miss Paul. He didn't just visit my wife in the hospital several years ago, he brought a pot of Dunkin Donuts coffee.
When he attended the Veteran's day ceremonies at Hebron Elementary, he knew all the teachers and they loved him (particularly the ladies). You will be missed.
