He was an excellent chef, loved tending to his garden, enjoyed playing and hustling on darts and pool, where he met his bride-to-be, Veronica.  There was nothing Paul could not accomplish. A true inspiration to all who knew and loved him.

Paul was always a father, grandfather, and great grandfather that everyone wanted and wished they had.  We love him so much and now he will be watching over and guiding us until we are all reunited.  He was always a shining example of a true and proud man.  No matter what time of day, Paul was always available for anyone who needed him, especially family.

“If I should go tomorrow, it would never be goodbye, for I have left my heart with you, so don’t you ever cry. The love that’s deep within me, shall reach you from the stars, you’ll feel it from the heavens, and it will heal the scars.” - Unknown Author
