He joined the Air Force and made it his career for 22 years, during which he served in the Vietnam War and earned a Bronze Star. After retirement, Paul worked for several area car dealerships in auto body repair. He enjoyed golf, gardening, hunting and spending time at the home place in Claudville. Paul was a lifelong learner who never let a moment of his day go to waste. He truly loved his family and friends.
