Paul & I became acquainted our freshman year in homeroom. (For the record, our homeroom teacher was Dave Arnott and we were in F-Wing library.) We would share a library table with a couple others as Mr. Arnott and the morning announcements were read from the PA.
What can I say about Paul? He was 100% nice, friendly, engaging - - - not any hang-ups, facades - a person who almost always had a smile on his face.
Paul was a "go-with-the-flow" type of gent. That doesn't he wouldn't speak his mind if he had to, but he non-controversial,didn't make waves - - could get along with just about anyone..
In later years, Paul & I would chat on occasion as we both were in the printing industry for many years.At his print/grapbics shop on the east side (Milwaukee), the shop culture was also friendly, non-stress - but Paul & his staff were all hard workers and with 100% integrity.
I was saddened to learn that such a nice human being such as Paul had to struggle with Parkinson's Disease. At least he is no longer suffering - but I will miss Paul. G-dspeed.

I got to know Paul when he transferred to St. Eugene’s School in about 5th grade. I think he started high school at Dominican but transferred to Nicolet by sophomore year. We were roommates for a few years in the Riverwest neighborhood while going to UWM. He was a fun guy - everybody liked him. Paul was always very open-minded would try to understand other peoples’ points of view on issues. He loved folk music (Pete Seeger, Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie) and made two dulcimers himself. Paul worked at and eventually bought the family printing business. He got sick with Parkinson’s about ten years or so ago. I’ll miss his quirky sense of humor and his laugh.
