Good hard teacher at Palo Verde H.S. Would not have any other way. He snapped the ball in class that you did not catch. God speed to a good man. Class of 1978.

My thoughts and prayers with all of the Hatcher family.

My father was my hero. He set the example in which I have always tried to model my life. These last days have proven to me that it was not an endeavor of futility. I believe that the success of a persons life is not measured in money and material goods. The quality of the treasure of your friends defines the success of your life. Meeting and getting to know each and everyone of dads friends, and the love and respect you have shown, affirms my belief that dad was the most seccesful man I have ever known. I personally want to thank each of your for your caring and support. You have brought my son and I great comfort in this trying time. My life has truly been enhanced meeting and knowing each of you. Again, thank you.

My prayers to the family.His prowess as an athlete was remarkable but tempered by his humility. For me, he portrayed being a gentleman, shadowing his furious football talent.Proud to have spent time on the playing field with this great man. 56'-59'!

Paul was one of the kindest and most gentle people I have ever known. I'm sure he has obtained his eternal reward after being such a Christlike individual in this mortal life.

Paul was one of my first friends at Palo Verde and certainly one of the kindest and most supportive. His warm demeanor and his caring nature drew people to him and he always made each of us feel important. He left a great legacy of humanness for his family, friends, colleagues, and former students. He will be missed and he will always be remembered with great warmth.
