Not sure what to say?

He is missed by everyone who knew him.

It was our great honor and pleasure to meet Paul during a holiday celebration at his daughter´s home in Peachtree City, GA. Paul was a distinguished, elegant, accomplished gentleman who had a humble presence that made you lean in when he spoke. He was engaging, interesting, and...interested. You would not have known about his impressive background and life because he did not readily speak of it. His interest was in who he was talking to - what was their story? Our condolences to the family,...

We are all familiar with many of Paul's good qualities: charm, enlightening conversationalist, humor, intellect, kindness, and patriotism. Alot of people may not know of another attribute -- adept shopper. While fulfilling his work assignments overseas, my lifelong friend Norah always had another task for Paul. He was to shop for unique gifts for her to give to friends and family. Paul willingly took on the challenge and always completed the mission. On their trips in recent years, he...
