He loved to work with his hands, and he could fix anything and make anything.

He took pride in his yard, and loved to grow a garden. His tomatoes were the best home grown tomatoes around! His children and grandchildren loved to play around in the garden, running through the corn, and having rotten tomato fights in the fall.

He loved his grandchildren and great grandchildren so much. He loved to sit out on his bench and watch them play on the swing set.

He loved his dogs more than life itself. Gomer, Corky, Boomer, and Rowdy.  He loved taking them on rides on his golf cart. You could often find him and his dogs taking a stroll down the road.

Paul was a very humble and kind man. He enjoyed his life and everything it had to offer. He will be dearly missed by all of those that loved him.
