To Paul's children - I did not know about your dad until today and my heart is broken to hear this sad news. Your dad adored all of you and your grandparents. He had a great attitude and endless sense of humor. I'll miss him. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. You were definitely the apple of his eye.
