I am truly stunned. I was unaware of Paul's passing. It has been years since our paths crossed, but an unforgettable imprint was made when our paths did. My condolences and love go out to his family.

My deepest sympathies to all of Paul's family and especially Michelle. I've known Paul for years as Michelle's best friend but I didn't really get to know Paul until about 2014. Michelle & Paul were both there for me the past several months through some egregiously difficult times. Paul was definitely his own person but he had a good heart. He would chat you up while giving you the shirt off his back. Michelle, I know how heart broken you are and I will always be here for you every step of the way. I love you!
