Love you grandpa, I miss you. I always loved how you said, "Say chicken lips!" when we were taking pictures. Love you.

I am so very sorry to hear of Paul“s passing, and even more so that I just learned the day after the funeral. We worked together at Cessna and had many laughs and I have some fond memories to remember him by. Prayers to all his family.
