Paul will be surely missed.  I have memories of him being a teammate on the track team, of him in several of classes with me, of us having some communication in the past several years.  He was a good guy.

My Ole Friend and fellow Track mate will be missed.  Paul was a very kind and gentle person,  well educated and loved his extensive world travels.  I so enjoyed the extra time spent with he and his wife, Joann, at our 50 Yr CKM Reunion.  Thanks Paul for all of the memories, socializing, and sharing your stories of travel and places you recommended. I will truly miss you at our CKM 55 Yr Reunion.

Paul was such a kind person who smiled easily and was friendly in a mature and gentle way.  We met at Cal Junior High and were friendly at McClatchy also. He was smart, had a good sense of humor and was kind to all.  I send my condolences to Joann and your family. You will be missed.  

Fondly, Sandra
