Pail taught me a lot about sailing. Paul and I and Dennis were often on the Keystone Lake boat in all weather conditions and throughout the year

I loved the experiences on his boat.

Paul also apprecimusic and I would drop by his house and we would listen to various cuts on his sound system and then discuss them. Pail was knowledgeable about various musicians and their music and I again learned a lot from him

I will always remember Paul and remember those times when he was part of my life and am glad got those memories

One of the good guys is gone too soon. When I met my husband some 40 years ago I fell head over heels for him, but little did I know one of the biggest bonuses was going to be becoming great friends with his friends. One of those friends was Paul. He was a true friend and ally to me from day one. I knew he had my back and I had his no matter what. We made many ski trips and spent many holidays together. He was part of our family and our hearts! Until we meet again, my friend, until we meet again! RIP Paul!

Paul was a real friend. They say that friends are family you choose. The photo is a trip we made to Ferney in British Columbia. It reminded of a trip we made a half century earlier .with several friends We drove all night from Tulsa to Longs Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park in a camper we borrowed from Mickey Wilson. As soon as we reached the trailhead we strapped on our backpacks with 45 lbs of camping gear and headed up the mountain. We climbed all day and arrived at Boulder Field and made camp, with the expectation of summiting the next morning. Having come from Tulsa without sleep and climbing to 14,000 feet we were bushed. That evening I came down with the altitude sickness from hell and knew I had to go down. Without thought Paul said he was going with me. It was another 14 miles back down the mountain, in the dark. Out of all our companions it was Paul who knew I would never make it alone and was willing to forego the summit to help a friend. We reached our camper next morning and drove into town for bar-b-q. After a nap we rented horses and rode up the mountain. We made so many trips together, fishing, skiing, hiking ,backpacking. The trips continued after I moved to Colorado and we added an annual motorcycle trip thru the Colorado Mountains. Paul loved the outdoors almost as much as he loved his friends. Until we meet again old friend. sam
