What I can tell you quickly of Paul is that he was truely one of the most genuine people I know. I know people say that "so and so likes to make people happy," but Paul lived for it. When I worked in the Service Desk I would be constantly stressed out. Paul always knew how to make me smile. I never met a person who didn't like Paul. He is as loyal a friend to some ex-co-workers of mine, as he was to the Army and to his country.
If you've ever seen pictures of Paul, you would be able to see that he was full of life - from his crazy hair-dos to hair-dont's! That one thing about him, he definately lived every moment to the fullest. It's a tragedy to imagine the day such an amazing person passes away. I know that he has inspired and continues to inspire those whose lives he's touched.
