Jennie, I saw Kent briefly today and he told me about Paul. I am so sorry to hear about his passing. I always appreciated the dedication you and Paul both had for our kids. Y'all were an important part of our 'village'. Hugs and prayers from afar.

Paul, was one class act. I got to work with him while I was on the Health and Ecology Committee in the Georgia General Assembly for 10 years. I could count on Paul for truthful information and in a timely manner.

Jennie, Nathan and Family,
As you know, Paul and I shared “outlaw” status at the annual Crouch Family Reunion held at Garden City Beach, SC. Those few hours at the reunion each year provided my only contact with Paul over the past 25 years. Those hours were enough, however, for us to form a friendship. It was immediately obvious to me that Paul was a man of intellect, honesty and integrity...someone I wanted to know better. We spent much time at those events talking about his work, my work, and most of all about our children. Nathan, I learned more about you in those talks with your dad than I could learn from Wikipedia!! He was so very proud of you.
This year, we missed our conversation due to COVID-19. However, we talked on the phone just a few months ago. I had let Paul know that I was a huge fan of the baked beans he cooked for the reunion dinner, and I asked him for the recipe. This summer, Paul called me and told me he didn’t have a written recipe, but just “cooked them from memory”. We had planned a Zoom session on some upcoming rainy afternoon where he would cook beans and dictate what he was doing. I would be taking notes and hopefully end up with the recipe! I’m sure that we would have caught up on Nathan and my children during the session. Sadly, we waited too long to set up our “meeting”.
Paul Shanor was a good man. That was clear to me 25 years ago in our first reunion chat. I’ll miss those talks, and I’ll forever wonder how he made those beans taste so good!
Rest In Peace, Paul.

Paul was one of the best men I ever knew. I was privileged to work with him in state government, and he was smart and effective in guiding healthcare policy for Georgia. He became one of the foremost Georgia experts on healthcare, and his influence on healthcare will be felt for years to come. He was so devoted to Jennie and Nathan, who were the lights of his life. I will miss him and always remember his smile.
