Uncle Paul worked harder than anyone I ever knew. When I was a kid he worked 12 hour days and had multiple simultaneous projects. Yet he took the time to take us on poney rides and many boat rides. He built a bus stop shelter for us when I was in high school. He got me my first job. The Buick application magically appeared on a Friday and I was a member of UW local 599 by Monday. He was the most interesting and nicest and knowledgeable man I've ever known. It seemed like he could do anything....

Then waking up in the morning and grandma would make pancakes. I know you loved when us grandbabies would stay the night because you got pancakes in the morning. You were the most hardworking man ever. I...
