Paul was and will remain a wonderful friend and neighbor, if only in memory... Sean & Corey Evans

Paul was more than a friend; he was a person who made life better just by being in it. He had a gift for understanding people and always knew how to find the good in them. I'll always remember the sound of his laugh during one of our joke-telling sessions. Whether it was offering a listening ear or a simple, encouraging word, he had a way of making you feel seen and valued. His passing leaves a hole in our hearts, and it's hard to believe he was taken from us so young. Rest in peace, Paul....

My sincere condolences for losing Paul - he was a great person. I´m especially sad for those he left behind. I knew him through his awesome wife Heather and her sister Margaret Hotting and some work scenarios. Rest In Peace Paul - you were loved by a wonderful family!

I am so sorry! We've known each other since we were kids at Temple Baptist. In high school we would sit and talk in the campus school yard and he always gave me great advice. He and Mike were both so funny! They took me to my first (and last!) snipe hunting experience at the river near their house. He will never be forgotten!

I've known Paul for as long as I can remember. He was kind, funny and very smart. I enjoyed working with him and talking about our industry, Paul was my friend. I still cannot believe Paul is gone. My heart goes out to Heather and their family. Rest in peace Paul, the world will never be the same without you.

What a shock to hear of Paul´s passing! Paul and I went back to grade school, a true long time friend. We enjoyed times in Lodi, Humboldt, Fresno and So Cal. A lot of memories that cannot be discussed!! He recently missed a birthday party for one of our friends only to promise to connect soon. So sorry that did not happen. May God´s peace be with you my friend!

I worked for Paul at FSC. Paul gave me the opportunity to expand on my career in the Insurance market. Paul had a great sense of humor, was a great leader, and family man. I can still hear Paul´s laugh from when we sat in meetings. My condolences to the Areida family.

Paul was the BEST! Incredible sense of humor and ALWAYS lit up the room when he entered. His smile will forever be in my memories. HUGE LOSS. I´m certain he´s being greeted by the BEST upstairs! Hugs to Ann, Heather and family.
