Not sure what to say?

I have been moving around the country and lost track of Paul so sorry to hear his passing! I used to be the lone girl in his running group of four buddies... One passed in the swiss air explosion years ago but we still continued to run with my lab dutch. Loved hearing Paul's stories as we ran he will be missed!

Dear Chris,
We are so very sorry for your loss and wish you comfort in the days ahead. Just want you to know we are thinking of you. The Linsenmeyer Family

I worked with Karen at Lakewood Court. She told Paul about my twins who played the trumpet and got into the jazz band starting in junior high school. Paul bought them tickets to see the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra and we all went. After Karen retired, my wife and I would race to Danny Boy's after work on Friday's to talk to them. They glowed when they talked about you all.
I'm very sorry for your loss.

Chris, Gary, Taylor and Tucker, we are saddened by your loss and will keep you in our prayers. You have delivered a beautiful tribute to Paul. We have had the pleasure of meeting Paul on the sidelines of Cleveland sports events and working with his wonderful images. Paul was a rare person and we are all better for having him in our lives.


Paul Tepley lives on in the pages of his brilliant photo history of the Cleveland Browns. In the preface he wrote "It is my hope that the photos in this book --Cleveland's Browns-- will bring back a lot of memories of the people and the events that make up the history of the Cleveland Browns."

Paul, you did that so very well. And as we look at those photos we also have very fond memories of the thoughtful, friendly man who took all those great pictures, and brightened our lives...

Rest In Peace Paul, the world was made better with your presence. Thank you for all of your wonderful one of a kind photographs and all of the hard work with The Cleveland West Road Runners Club.
