Paul was my favorite uncle although he was more like an older brother that I looked up to as we were only six years apart in age. During my 21 years in the Air Force I looked forward to my furloughs when I could come home to visit him and Aunt Lil. After my military retirement and I had settled on the seacoast, I continued to visit and he became one of my best customers! He was a great guy and is sadly missed. Sincerest condolences to those he loved and who loved him.
