Grandpa Paul was a rock. During the course of my entire life, I always knew what to expect from my grandfather. He would be kind and caring. He would find a clever reason why a nap was absolutely necessary every afternoon. He would successfully make me feel comfortable sitting silently in a room with him, quite a feat for an 8 year old boy. Year after year, taking his candy vitamins and drives to see the latest construction projects, Grandpa Paul was the same good man. I am just incredibly grateful that a certain woodchuck and I made him smile the last time I saw him. You will be missed, Grandpa.

My grandfather was the kindest, sweetest, most loving man I have ever met. It was an honor and a privilege to be around him and to have spent the holidays and visits I was able to with him. He set the bar for what it means to be a wonderful grandfather and dad and he will be missed with the utmost love and respect by everyone who knew him. He is in a better place but this place won''t be nearly as nice without him. I love you grandpa and I will always miss you.

Marion & family-- we express our greatest condolences to you..Love and hugs.. Paul is now in a better place and resting well..probably watching some racing.. So sorry to hear this..

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
