“Linda & family I am devastated to hear this and want you to know that my thoughts, heart and prayers are with you all. What a fine man. Paul was; such a good person with a fantastic sense of humor! I so enjoyed working with him at Caterpillar as well as chatting with him on Forest Hill when I lived around the corner on Bigelow. Many great memories! Paul had a huge heart and will be incredibly missed but will be in heaven cheering all of us on, Susan (Ross) Otten”
