Uncle Paul always was a great story teller. While visiting my Dad in Florida when he was there, the stories they would relate about their childhood together were absolutely a treasure!
Rest in Peace Uncle Paul!
Condolences to all my cousins dealing with his passing. Love, Kurt

Some of my earliest memories are of my Uncle Paul. When I was little (he was a teenager) he often took me to get ice cream. When he went into the Navy, I always slept in his old room when I stayed
at Grandma's. It helped me feel close to him.
I am very thankful I was able to spend time with him the last few years when he visited Dad in Florida.
He is a very special man that will be sorely missed, but remain in my heart forever.
