Paul McDaniel Obituary

PAUL ANDREW McDANIEL, 22, of Memphis, passed away Sunday, September 14, 2008. Paul graduated from CBHS and was attending CBU, majoring in finance with plans to attend law school. Paul was an avid mountaineer that had a deep passion for the rock, ice, and snow. He always lived everyday to the fullest and never stammered in front of any worldly challenges. He was the articulate type that always put danger first! Not afraid of the depths or heights, Paul was a man to be admired. Paul was a Christian that accepted Jesus Christ as his personal savior at a young age. Paul will be greatly missed by his parents, Shelby and Patty McDaniel; three brothers, Ben McDaniel and wife, Sarah; Tim McDaniel and wife, Nicole; Brad McDaniel and wife, Sarah. He was a loving uncle to Ellon and Doss McDaniel. Paul was the grandson of the late Benjamin and Francis Baker. At the end of Paul's earthly journey, he passed on the gift of life through vital organ and tissue donations; which will save up to 8 lives and give up to 80 people a chance for a higher quality of life. Memorial Park Funeral Home has charge. In lieu of flowers, donations may be given to The Paul A. McDaniel Stroke Awareness and Research Foundation, P. O. Box 770758, Memphis, TN. 38177 or the Brinkly Heights Academy. Memorial Park Funeral Home 901-767-8930 www.memorialparkonline.com
