Dave and I feel very fortunate to have known and worked with Paul at SCCA events. We will always remember his keen & "devilish" sense of humor. He (and Karen) mentored me so kindly in all things "grid". Paul will be missed greatly. We send our love, "Paddock Dave" and Kathy Draper

So sad to find another member of our SCCA family to have so suddenly left. Being such a large one, the frequency should come as no surprise. It's still painfull to all. No doubt a veteran within the Grid ranks, I will see you at the banquet. My Very Best, Mike King

For all the days you spent on Grid, and all the times you laughed. For all the moments that you gave so others could have theirs. We give a special Thank you to our friend, who will be missed but mostly remembered. Anna & Wayne Coturri
