I miss our amazing conversations. We may have been working but it was always like speaking to a friend. I always missed our computer sharing. God bless you Paul, you will always be missed.

Paul made a great impression on me. I can remember conversations I had with him like I had them yesterday. His advice and assistance was far superior to almost any I have ever received. His kindness, patience, and intelligence will always be remembered fondly. God bless you Paul.

Truly saddened to hear the news of Paul's passing. I must say he is one of the kindest, most intelligent, and patient men I have encountered. He spent countess hours assisting us with his Star Byte program with the utmost professionalism. I am a dentist in Miami Beach, Fl and would love to continue using Star Byte. Any information about Star Byte would be greatly appreciated. Wishing the best to Paul's family. Dr. Oscar Lopez 305-948-8882.

To Paul's family.... We were clients of Paul's for a few years and he was ALWAYS SO GRACIOUS and willing to help us:) His passing came as an absolute shock to us! He always sounded much younger over the phone:) If anyone in the family is taking over his business, please let us know. Paul was surely escorted into Heaven by plenty of angels. We will remember him fondly:) Sincerely, His Starbyte friends, Cheryl L. Rosato, DMD and Maya

I was a client of Paul's and spoke to him a few times a year. He was one of the nicest people I ever spoke with. My prayers go out to his family during this very sad time.

Jim and I will miss him greatly. He was great friend. Our prayers are for Linda and the family. It was his excitement and the twinkle in his eyes that I used in my novel...Everytime my plane was in the air; it was through Paul's eyes.

My sympathy to Linda and the family. I flew with Paul in the mid 80's. J. H. Hanson used to fly with him quite frequently and referred to him as Pauly. He is going to be missed!
