I met Paul in the Amvcc club. He was a great mentor and helped me a lot with my 53 m37. Sharon and he both were very kind and accommodating. Rest in Peace brother

I'm finding it hard to put into words how much our family is going to miss Paul. His outspoken ways, his lively discussions and his love for his country are just a few things we'll miss. His love for Sharon ,Jesse and Elaina was very evident whenever we were together. Every time I make my Pistachio salad I will think of Paul, because I use to make it just for him. He knows that we will watch over his family here on earth until we join him someday in heaven.

Paul was an amazing human being. I am not quite sure that I have ever met a person with such unique qualities, nor the willingness to share his opinions and beliefs for which he stood. He had an enormous heart and had the ability to squeeze into yours' within one converstation. I will miss him dearly, but I cannot help but grin from ear to ear everytime I think of his face, his EXTREMELY vocal nature, or the words, "that's FAN-TASTIC!" We love you Paul and we'll see you soon!

I never had the pleasure of meeting Paul in person, but felt that I knew him through my friendship with Sharon.

My deepest sympathies go out to Sharon, Jesse, Elena and all of his family.

I am glad that Paul is in a better place. His family was his passion as much as his country. Paul was never wishy-washy on his beliefs. The gruff exterior belied a gentle demeanor which showed when he took you under his wing. He wanted you to succeed. Paul was polite yet sometimes direct when he saw you drifting off the correct course. He let you know! Paul was a genuine friend and he will be missed. Enjoy racing, shootin' an 4-wheelin' up there in the clouds of heaven! You are in our hearts.

Paul was one of those "good people" in this world. His loss is a loss for all of us. He had great passion for the things he believed in and stuck by those ideals, unlike many today. He will be missed. Sympathy and comfort to Sharon and the kids.
