Kokolus Clan... So sorry to hear about Paul's passing. I really enjoyed having Paul as a colleague at PV many years ago. Also, my wife and son remember Paul fondly building our addition the summer after he retired from PV and allowing young Vik to use some of the "precision tools" during the project. Paul was a very nice man!
