His mother preceded him in death.
A celebration of his life was held Saturday, June 13, 2015, at the home of his close friend and Sigma Chi fraternity brother, Scott Vincent. Throughout the afternoon and into the evening, his family and many friends shared humorous stories and memories of Paul. Arrangements were by Drinkwine Family Mortuary, Littleton, Colo.
Paul will be missed by all who knew and loved him. He always will be remembered for his exuberant spirit, his irrepressible lust for life, his love of animals, especially camels, and the big fish that always seemed to elude him.
