Paul fought so hard for so long with his health, with Bobbie at his side. We are so very sorry for the deep void that losing Paul will leave. We are sorry that we can't be there in person to express our love and support.

I got to know Paul very well during the summer of 1967 when we worked together at the Springfield Country Club golf course. He would bring me home in his souped up Chevy. He was the best athlete at Franklin Junior High school who, because of a heart murmur he had, could never play organized sports. Fortunately, it did not deter him from living a great life with a wonderful woman. I will miss him very much at our 50th high school reunion.
