I was sorry to hear the news of Paul's passing. I had the pleasure to meet Paul and work with him on a few projects. He did a site visit to Teknetix a few years ago. He was a great person, very honest and respectful.

Terribly sad news. I recruited Paul to Exide in Leland as Quality Manager. He was talented for sure but also a great and fun Team mate. My deepest condolences to his beloved family, friends and colleagues. A true loss and much too young of age.

I first had the pleasure to meet Paul in 2007 at Eaton. Paul was always a wealth of knowledge and a great problem solver. His talent and more importantly his friendship will be missed. Rest now as your work on earth is done.

I enjoyed working with Paul several different times over the years while he and I were working at Exide in the 1990's and even a short time at Eaton in 2010. He was a good and hardworking man - my thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Words are inadequate to describe 17 years of professional interaction and a developed personal friendship with Paul. His broad knowledge of engineering, manufacturing, suppliers and materials was a gold mine to those of us that worked with him. His earnest humor was always welcome in conversation, with Dilbert being a central figure. I enjoyed business trips to visit suppliers with Paul. Despite similar educational and work experience backgrounds, I always learned from him. I am richer for knowing him, poorer for losing him. But good memories shall prevail.

To Paul's Family:
Many fond memories of Paul and his cousin Peter at Notre Dame H.S. in Niles, where they were both varsity football players and part of The Jugglers, the school's theater group.
Your dad was a really good man!

I worked with Paul for over 5 years. We sat next to each other for the last 2. I can't remember a day without laughter. He told me on many occasions that he was a certified cynical pessimist, and he was not kidding. I will miss him. See you on the other side...

“If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.” Bishop Robert South
I worked with Paul for 12 years at Eaton on various projects. We talked about work, about what we liked and disliked, what should be done and what is being done, and about life. Paul was a great sounding board and a generator of ideas that made you think. He gave me his insight, his views, and his knowledge. I always enjoyed his thoughts and his opinions, but I think that the most important thing that he gave me was his Time. I considered him my friend and I will miss that Time. Until we meet again, Rest in Peace, my friend.
