My condolences to Paul's family. In my travels as a sprinkler repairman I meet many interesting people and Paul was one of them. We had some great conversations when he lived on ARD. He spoke of his early life in La. and his work with Henry J. Kaiser. And how he wished his son would give up the motorcycle. His memory lives on.
