Our times together as we called each other brothers. You will be so missed in this world with your giving nature and love of people. I just found out yesterday from your cousin Cara Thorwald that you had left this world.

Paul was best! He transported me back and forth between Bartlesville and Stillwater when we were in college. Often on arriving in Bartlesville, we would stop at Murphy's and he would fix us hamburgers and fries. I actually partied with friends for my 70th birthday at Murphy's and my husband and I ate there for our 50th wedding anniversary. I loved to see and catch up with Paul when he was there. My sincere condolence to his family.
