Paul had many passions, with a particular love for military history and collecting military memorabilia, especially British artifacts from the 1800s through the 20th century. Together with his wife Cristina, he practiced his Catholic faith devotedly throughout his life.
Predeceased by his father, Robert, and his mother Elizabeth, Paul is survived by his loving wife, Cristina; his sister, Patricia; his brother, Gerald; sister-in-law Christine; nieces Dawn, Heidi, and Michelle, and grandnephew, Rylan. Family, friends, and colleagues will remember Paul for his sharp sense of humor, generous mentorship, and deep loyalty. his legacy lives on in the many lives he touched, both personally and professionally.
