Paul was a Pensacola resident since 1950 and retired from his long time sewing machine business, here in Pensacola. He was well liked and knew many people through his sewing machine business and his beloved hobby, of ballroom dancing. He had a zest for life and an ongoing curiosity for all things new in the world and loved to read, garden and listen to his shortwave radio. He was fun and loving and much loved by his family.
