Kathy,
Paul made an impression on me even in the short time I knew him as one of my customers. Most customers are seen and soon forgotten. Paul was different. He was pleasant, honest, understanding, patient, and in an upbeat mood whenever I spoke with him. He always had a kind thing to say about someone or something. I consider it a genuine honor to have known him that extends way beyond a business transaction. You are in my prayers.

Kathy,
I am sorry for your loss. I worked with Paul for many, many years at ORNL. He was a cheerful person and often spoke lovingly of you. I have missed him since he retired.
God Bless You.

Kathy,
I knew Paul through high school and Hope Church in Indianapolis. There were many great times of enjoying his sense of humor and growing in his relation to Christ. I was saddened to hear from Pete of Paul's battle with cancer and then his homegoing to be with the Lord Jesus. May the living God give you comfort and peace.
Blessngs

Dear Kathy,
I worked with Paul in M&C for many years. He was such a great fellow and always had a kind word when we passed
in the hall. He will be missed by all.
