I was was very sadden to hear of Pauls passing. I enjoyed the time we worked together. He became a quick friend when I first meet him. We became very good freinds and I was glad to be of help to him. I offer to his Wife and Family my condolences, and offer my prayers at this most difficult time. Paul had so much to offer. He will be greatly missed.
