Read MoreThis reminder popped up in my email from Legacy and so came back and read Paul´s obit again. 9 yrs gone. Seems like an eternity and yet only yesterday. What a great legacy he left with friends. It was truly a joy to read his life´s history again. Paul was an acquaintance of mine but I liked him. He left a mark on people. Makes me smile this morning thinking of him.

Bridget - I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I knew Paul from the ISI events you would haul him to, and he always made it more fun for everyone. He will be missed.

I am dumbstruck to hear this sad news. Too young, too vibrant and too much life to have him pass over the river at such a young age. Very sorry to hear this news, prayers for Bridget

Dear Bridget,
I was at the service last night but didn't get the chance to talk with you. I am so very sorry. Paul was one of a kind, you know that better than anyone. He was so much fun to be around. I loved travelling with him for work, he always made things fun. Because we travelled together I remember him telling me how the two of you met. Every time he would mention you I could tell you were the center of his world. He adored you. You have great memories to last a life time and I...

Paul was a Legend on and off the field. My last chance to spend time with him was at a golf event a few years ago in 100 degree heat. Kurt, Paul and I played Grand Geneva with former big-leager John 'Blue Moon' Odom and had a great time. Photo attached. He will be missed by many. My sympathy.
