Our sincere prayers and condolences to the entire family of Paul. God has we are sure greeted his soul in the next life. From a classmate of Miami High School 53.

Paul and I, as well as Earl Steffen, all attended Robert E. Lee Junior High School. I remember him as a genial, honest, mature, and pleasant student.

I remember Paul very well. In school he seemed so timid, gentle and shy at 17. He was so sweet. I am so sorry I neglected to call him about 3 weeks ago. I regret that. We will all see each other in Heaven. My deepest sympathy to his surviving family members.

Our condolences to the whole family of Paul from his Miami Senior High Class of 1953. I personally stayed in touch with dear Paul through the last 11 years and knew his very kind heart always giving to others no matter how sick he was...I will report to all our classmates of this kinder, gentle person. I remember him taking the train to our last 65th reunion from Miami, last September , 2018...and that was an effort...I am so glad I and many others got to know Paul. May God bless you all...

A good friend in high school who quietly distinguished himself in life. My sincere condolences to his family.
