Not sure what to say?

I sang for Paul as a member of the White Bear Area Choral Association for over 15 years. His passion for music, his vision and his hard work made it possible for our organization to have reached a 40th anniversary milestone this year.

He was a great composer, a kind man, and I feel that I am a better person and singer for having had Paul in my life. He is missed

Paul was my son, Jesse's, piano teacher for 5 years. He was a wonderful teacher and a kind, gentle man. We loved to hear the stories of his rich life experiences.

And, even though I have not seen him too many times over the years, that wonderful energy of his has stayed with me forever, and will stay with me forever..

Paul taught my children piano for the last 14 years. Now just my youngest was taking piano. Paul - thank you for bringing music to our lives and home. You even took the time to teach my kids to sing in Swedish. Your Hello, Hello will be so greatly missed!!! God Bless
