Not sure what to say?

Chet was one of the finest and most honorable bankers ever in the micro cap underwriting business, and it was a pleasure to work with him over the years. He was also a great tennis player and skier and great family man.

Always liked and respected Chet. He was willing to take a minute to talk to you and give you his full attention even when busy. Working with Paulson Investment was great, miss the good old days. So sorry for your loss, he was a good man.

Had many good tennis games at Chet's home as well ate Chick's.It was a Sunday ritual.A good man has passed.Condolences to the Paulson family.Sincerely Des Johnson M.D.

Chet will be greatly missed. We had so many wonderful parties , softball games, boat races and good times. My condolences to Jackie, Charlie, Eric and all the Paulson clan.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you Jackie and family. Chet was loved by many and leaves a big hole.

Chet will be remembered as a wonderful boss by many of us who had the pleasure of working for him but most of all a wonderful human being.

"Back in the day", Chet Paulson was regarded by many as an iconoclast in the business of investment securities. "Survivor" (and then some) is reasonably apt, as well. In some ways, he forecast the rise and clout of today's "hedge fund" managers gaining the nickname "Chet-the-checker" on trading activity of competitor brokers, while riding out many a storm. And thanks again, Chet, for the Rose Bowl tickets !! Best wishes "upstairs" . . .
