I'm sad to learn Paul has passed; I knew him to be kind, loving and a wonderful Dad to Ivan. He will be missed but I know he's at peace and with the Lord Jesus. I am praying for the Peace of God to minister to his remaining family. Blessings and love in Christ.

Paul you will be greatly missed. I enjoyed playing cards and talking with you and greatly appreciated the incite you gave me in my studies in criminal justice. I am proud to call you a friend of mine. Until we meet again in heaven, Mary Schrank

it is with sadness I note the passing of an old friend. We worked together and played softball and basketball together back in a time when our bodies did whatever we asked of them without complaint. I have many happy memories of Paul as an active and energetic young man and good friend. I am sorry for you loss

I did not know you personally, but I know your son Ivan & family. I prayed that you would pull though this, but God wanted you with him more. After so much suffering I know you are in a better place no sickness & you are healthy once again.
