I did not know Paul as long as some at Badger Steam @Gas but he will always be remembered as a kind hard working friend. Rest in peace.

Paul was a mentor and friend to many of us in the old iron hobby and he will be missed. Thanks for all the adventures and memories. You will be missed.

Paul and our mom (Norma Clavadatscher) worked together at Badger Ordinance and then Paul and our Dad (Wally Clavadatscher) worked on many jobs at the Badger Steam and Gas shows. Paul was a good friend to them, stopping in to see them frequently, when they were in assisted living. He was a good man!
