paul, I will never be able to thankyou enough for the friendship and guidance you gave my son Richie. I am eternally greatfull and at ease knowing my son was fliing with a person of your stature and ability .when you and richie came back from your tour at Embry Riddle listening to you and Richie babble on about what you all got to see and do that day I knew deep inside you two were like father and son. I know you never had kids but to thankyou in your after life I comit richie to you as your own. I saw in you as I saw in myself and as I saw in richie.may you fly together in the life everafter as FATHER AND SON. you were the mentor of all mentors. In your honor I hope I get the chance to mentor some one in some way. although I know it wont be as exciting as your life, but I will make the most of it. I love and miss you guys , fly free in the skies above good bye
Thank you for entertaining and teaching us. I only got to meet Paul once, but he was nice and always had a kimd word of encouragment to give me through email. You will be missed.
