I was sad to hear about Paul and hope that he did not suffer but instead his passing was peaceful. My condolences to Jan and his family. I enjoyed working for him at DHUD and learned a great deal from him about the world of computers.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. Paul hired me into my first federal job as a computer operator at HUD in 1985, for which I am truly grateful. I enjoyed working for him, even though he would ask the most impossible questions about the status of our computer systems. I'm not sure why he would ask, but my standard response was, "I don't know". He would smile and walk away. I admired him very much. I will never forget him.
