I first met Paul when o was 12 years old. I bought a mare and began working on the ranch. I spent my teenage years growing up with Paul and Bill, and we became family. I learned so much from Paul, and saved me as young lost kid. He would give me his Levi´s coats when got a new one, and I literally lived in his old coats.
Ginger, I remember you too! I miss you all tremendously.
God speed Paul, we will meet again!
Lots of love,
Jon

I've worked with Paul since the early 70's sometimes in the same dept and sometimes in different depts. He was great to work with. Always funny and always laughing. He spent most of his 35 years at KM labelling and could out-label anyone. My wife had been corresponding on the internet for 10 years with Paul and was always cracking up at his jokes and stories. My wife and I took Paul to the beach last March and had a great time. We were supposed to see his horse and the ranch in the summer, but radition time came and beat him down and we never got to see him in action on the ranch. We will miss him dearly.

I just met Paul a few months ago but I had been talking to him for Ten Years. Paul had found out that I was going through Breast Cancer. He talked to my Husband at KM and got my e-mail address. That started a long friendship. I miss his e-mails. The words of encouragment and the funnnies that made me laugh. Rest in Peace my Friend.

My heart goes out to family
and friends at this time of sorrow.
I met Paul last year and was sorry
to hear of his illness. He was a kind
and gentle person with a great smile.
Best regards, Marcia

I've known Paul for a good part of my life. I first met him when he hauled my horse from Hillsborugh to Woodside in that old big red truck he had converted. And converted again as his livingquarters. Spent several years at Wika Ranch with my horses where he lived at the time laughing our fool heads off. Paul had a great sense of humor.
