Paul, you will be missed. The world of online novels and comics both have lost incredible talent. I will also miss the great charicters he brought to life.



I'm sorry that I never got to meet him in real life.

Too late I have found your work, too late to tell you how much I have enjoyed. Never too late to read it again. By so much do we touch the lives of others and are Remembered.

May God grant you a special place in His heart, Paul, for he has left a hollow within our's. I only got to 'chat' with you a handful of times but knew that I had met a good, and talented, person.



May your stories bring smiles to the Angels, as they did to your friends you've left behind.



Godspeed, Paul, and God grant peace and understanding to those that know and love you.

I have not been a reader of Pauls works for too long, yet in that time I have grown quite fond of them. I know I will miss your distinct style Paul, may the totems guide you to the final grounds.

I only knew Paul through a handful of e-mails and the copies of his works that he sent me, but I wish to give my sympathies to his family. Paul was an accomplished writer with a lot of wit and humor. We will miss him at the website.

I first came across Paul's work in 1999 when I stumbled across his online comic at the time - "Haul Trek." We began e-mailing each other after I found his "Embassy" site, and every month I looked forward to the new stories and chapters of his.



Now, no more ...



Goodbye, my friend, we'll never forget you.
