Paul was an incredibly hard worker and instilled his work ethic and integrity in his children.
Paul fought a long and courageous battle with kidney cancer beginning in 2003. His example of strength through grit, love of family, and love of life was powered by a strong faith in God and prayer and is a lasting legacy for his family and loved ones.
