Sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts are with you. edwin.
Paul and I were classmates at the Bismarck Schools. We attended the same church. We both played Clarinet in band and he was a super instrumentalist ("1st Chair"). He was a good friend during those wonderful years. I'm sad to learn of his passing. My deepest sympathy to his family and special friends. Good bye, dear one. "Nancy"

Uncle Paul was kind man with a wonderful, dry sense of humor. He was the favorite baby brother of the family and will be missed.
Paul and I were classmates in high school and though I haven't seen him in years, I was able to talk with him on the phone a few years ago. Paul was one of the nicest guys in our class, and I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I send heartfelt sympathy to his family.
We send our sympathy to Paul's family. We knew him for many years and always knew him as a kind and caring man. Gary and Pat Dane
I spent much time with Paul assisting him not only with his house cleaning needs but getting him back and forth to appointments. I know that he will be missed, as I have thought of him often, even tho he sometimes was hard to understand. At one point I have even offered to go with him to St. Louis when he thought he was going to get a lung transplant. Paul in turn assisted me when my own father passed almost 5 years ago. Paul struggled with many personal things in his life, that he refused to expose to many so I felt fortunate that he chose to confide in me and trust me enough to be there when I could.
Paul used to call me for each weeks spelling words in 2nd grade.
