Not sure what to say?

Paul you are still being remembered. You were the first person I met immigrating in 1964 from Germany & became lifelong friends

Paul, your warmth and sense of humor will be greatly missed! You were always a gentleman and a scholar. In all the many years of Jane and Diane Christmas, Academy Awards and political parties, I always looked forward to seeing you there. Bill was so very fortunate to have you in his life. Rest well, my friend.

Bill, I am deeply touched by the messages I read from others about Paul. He was one incredible human being - not unlike you. Though I didn't know him as long as I've known you (my God! -over 40 years), he was no less endeared. I frankly can't recall when I first met him but I'll never forget you and he coming to Ontario to pick me up before my Outward Bound adventure in 1996. That's followed closely by the drinks we (at least Paul and I) swilled at that wonderful bar addition to your...

Dear Bill,

Paul was always a generous, warm person and will be greatly missed. He positively touched many lives.

Bill, even though Paul was always kidding me, I loved it and him. He was one of a kind. His untimely death leaves us all a little sadder but the lights in heaven a lot brighter. Please know that my thoughts are with you.

Paul, you will always have a special place in my heart. You and Mitch were the two guys who stepped right up and helped Kim and I when we bought our first home in S.F.
And you also were there for us when we bought another home clear out in Concord.
I'll never forget our wild vacation together as we all crammed into your huge station wagon and headed to Oregon for our four day trip down the Rogue River. That was truly the best time of our lives! Thanks for a great time.
Heaven...

Bill, we are shocked and deeply saddened by the untimely loss of Paul (whom we always enjoyed seeing with you at those memorable gatherings on Grandview) You both have a special place in our hearts... Paul / Joe / Dennis

Paulie and I have been friends for almost 60 years, starting with our meeting at the Southern Pacific Railroad, he in Traffic and I in Acctg/Computers.We became fast friends when I moved into an apartment in the building he was managing, in the BuenaVista/Red
Rock section of S.F. I would need to write a book to relate all the wonderful years and experiences we had together. I guess the most memorable one being the night we went to dinner at a friends house for Cracked Crab. On the way...

Dear Bill,
Our deepest condolences on Paul's passing. He was such a special person, and will be missed.
