Judy: That was such a WONDERFUL mass and party at Madonna. I loved all the family photos and hearing the nephews speak (and Paul doing the Donald Duck voice!). The nephews were so great and loved Paul so much. Such an honor to glimpse what a wonderful family you have and all the support they'll give you, not to mention the crowds of friends! And Kevin and I are proud to count ourselves among them. Looking forward to sharing a glass of wine on the porch-- ours or yours-- and toasting Paul sometime soon. We are so sorry for your loss of SUCH a terrific best friend.

Cousin Judy, Paul was and will always hold a place in my heart. Ever since I was a child, he was always so kind, thoughtful and fun. A truly humble man, that always had a smile on his face. Prayers are with you and your family.

Oh Judy. I am so sorry to hear about Paul. What a fun, kind, and always "positive" man. He survived that terrible accident at Cal Poly years ago with such determination. You two have always been my inspiration for what a great marriage should be like. John and I are so sad for you. God Bless and help you now and in the days ahead. You are in our prayers. Love,

Judy and Family. Our deepest condolence on the passing of Paul. We were both shocked when we viewed Telegram Tribune web page. Paul was such a good person and you both were such good neighbors to Mom for all those years. I'm sorry I missed his call on Sept 15.

Everybody loved Paul!!! Who didn't? We were in Hawaii while he was ill, some friends went by to visit and he said "I knew Paul for 15 minutes and he touched my life". It has been my pleasure to call Paul my friend for 44 years. He was funny, charming and always positive! My husband and I love Paul and Judy, they are family. We will see Paul again, till then Pops, Paulie... we will miss you greatly and we will be checking in on Judy! God bless all the family and we love you! Paul was a light burning bright, still is!

Judy, Dave loved working all those years at Cal Poly with Paul. We benefitted from this work relationship on a very personal level; the four of us became wonderful friends. We always loved when the four of us were together--laughing, always laughing. Much love and continued prayers for you.
