My sincere condolences. Paul was a great alum in our Lincoln University (MO) Chicago Chapter.

Paul was also President of Waters Edge Condo Association Board of Directors for 20 years. A very kind, thoughtful person with neighbors.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Paul was a great guy. He was always willing to help and had a positive upbeat attitude that was infectious.

Uncle Paul was an extremely caring, loving family man and was such a blessing to have as my Uncle. I am and will forever be grateful of how he would take me on a family vacation and treated me just like one of his daughters. I would call him often for advice and just to talk. He will be missed but never forgotten. My sincere condolences and prayers to the family.

He was an outstanding individual and mentor to me when I relocated to Chicago: I'm missing him!!!!!!

A good man in all ways.

Even though Paul was a high level executive at IRS, he was very approachable. I enjoyed working with him. Sincere condolences to his family on his passing and hope happy memories will help to sustain you. Florence (Warner) Atkinson

I have many great memories of Uncle Paul from down through the years! He was always so family friendly and welcomed me to the family! I will never forget how he rushed out to the local bakery in Michigan to get a cake for our wedding, since the order cake never showed up! I will be forever grateful for all the great times we had!
