Paul was so friendly and auch a great sport. He was also kind on the Pickleball court. Prayers and sympathy for the family.

Paul was very thoughtful and considerate person. I always enjoyed seeing and talking to Paul at Pickleball. Thoughts and prayers for your family. Sincerely, Lew Gorbach

Paul was a good friend in the years that I knew him. He was a faithful servant leader in business and a man who was sincere in living out his faith and his values in all areas of his life. My deepest sympathies to Lori and his sons and the rest of his family. Godspeed, Paul!

Paul was a person that you always hoped would be your partner on the Pickleball courts. So skillful & calculated. Truly a man of integrity, founded in the his love for the God who created and loved him. He will be greatly missed. May we all seek to carry his spirit in our heart. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Terry & Sandi DeGroot

In the recent short few years that we had the privilege to know Paul through the church and golf, I was impressed by his integrity and his willing smile.

My condolences to you Lori and your entire family. Paul will be truly missed. Paul was a great man and a good friend.
