I just heard and my prayers and condolences for family and friends. I got to know Paul while I was working with him and he was a warm, kind, sincere and honest man and friend. I am sad to hear the news he and I always talked about how much we loved our wives and how long we had been married although I only spoke on the phone with him I felt like I had known him a long time. please take care

We were all blessed to know and be influenced by Paul. For Lily, he was a father figure during the critical teen years. For our family he was a friend who could always be relied upon. We love you and will miss your steady hand and kind heart.
