Paul received 2 service medals (OCC Medal/ Germany and the National Defense SVC Medal). As a civilian Paul began his career in the area of radio and TV.

Paul loved to sing. He sang with his longtime friend Bob Nesbitt and his Big Band Show for many local special events. He was also an avid golfer and played every chance he got. He played most course within a 50-mile radius but his favorite was always Oglebay Park and his regular Sunday tee time with friends Eddie and Roger.

Paul loved his family and treasured family gatherings. He will be remembered for his distinct laugh and sense of humor. 

Blessed are those who have died in the Lord; let them rest from their labors for their good deeds go with them. Eternal rest grant unto him oh Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace.
