He relocated his family to Worthington, OH where daughter Paula and son Craig grew up. He retired from Fischer and Porter in 1985 after a successful 28 year career as a regional manager. Paul "gave back" to the community, volunteering for 13 years at 'Worthington Park Elem., helping first graders learn to read and improve their math skills. He was active at All Saints Lutheran Church and enjoyed gardening, reading and lifting weights with his gym buds. Paul is survived by his wife of 64 years, June; his brother Mike and wife Virginia; daughter Paula and husband Dick Bogan; son Craig and wife Joyce; grandchildren Sara Bogan and her husband Chris Wales, Nikolas Bogan and his wife Jae Marie, Kiera Nowacki and Jason Nowacki.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to All Saints Lutheran Church Music Ministry in Paul's name. He loved the organ music especially the Ode to Joy.

June, it's been such a long long time and I am sorry I have not written sooner. You have been in my thoughts and I extend my deepest regrets for the loss of your wonderful husband. You both were so very good to me during those college days. That goodness has stayed with me all this time and I have never forgotten the kindness both of you extended towards me. You are a wonderful person and I want you to know how very sorry that I let all this time pass. And I am sorry I didn't step up sooner so I could tell your husband the same. My deepest sympathies to your family for your loss.
