Always miss you Tommy.  As you used to say in school, "You da Man!"  Love you bro.

To the dear family members of one of the GREATEST MEN I HAVE EVER KNOWN, let me say my thoughts and prayers and tears are with you. I worked with Dr. Paulos for years at Arrowhead Clinic, just after his wedding, he was sooo happy. Dr. Paulos had been through soooooo much, but as he always did, was a trooper. He touched my life in a way that is just hard to put into words. I NEVER heard this sweet man say an unkind word about or to anyone. He was so very smart, so intellectual, but he never threw it around to make you feel smaller, as some Dr's do. Many Dr's could take a lesson from this great man. He wasn't very tall in stature, but in my eyes, he was the talest man I have ever known.This kind man of GOD taught me so much, not just about work, but life. REST IN PEACE MY DEAR FRIEND, ASEE YOU ONE DAY, AND WE WILL LAUGH TOGETHER AGAIN....Love, Mary Dawkins.


Tom was a very special brother in law. He was always smiling and was so interested in making sure that everyone he knew was happy. He was always willing to help others. He is greatly missed, but we know that he is in heaven with Mom and Danny. We love and miss you Tom. LuAnn and Dennis Cahall and family.

I worked for Tom at Loyola Marymount University and I think both of us left there in 1987.
I've thought of him so many times.  His humor was uplifting.  We often shared our love of the Lord.
I'm sorry I didn't know earlier of his passing.  I'm shocked and so saddened.  
I used to tease him that he should use his whole name - "Popadopolous".  I love it.  
I came into that office of young people being accepted as the mother.  
I would like to communicate with anyone in the family to talk about this dear man.

Lovingly, Renee

Dr. Tom Paulos was a rock in Chiropractic school.  Nothing phased him, and everything he did was with an awesome smile.  He was there for everyone, whenever they needed him.  As I've said before, if wings get subluxated up in heaven, I know Tommy is on the job.  Tommy, I miss you buddy, and may you rest in peace.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.  Dr. Paulos will be deeply missed.  He was the eternal optimist and I know we will meet again in the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  I count it a privilege to have known and worked with him.

We have not been in touch with Tom since Life College, but a friend has reported this tragic news.  What a great guy Tom was, a freind to everyone.  He and the family will be in our prayers.

A shock to the chiropractic community - what a stand up guy - i had the privilege to go through school with Tommy - what a roll model he was to us all - my condolences to his family
God Bless you Bro

My Condolences to the Paulos Family,
Dr. Paulos was an amazing nice guy. Even though I knew him for a short period of time but He was always encouraging and a happy positive person.
God rest your soul in peace.

The Paulos Family,
I am deeply saddened by the loss of a friend, mentor, colleague, and brother in Christ. As we grieve, let us remember how a simple phone call to Dr. Paulos's office would brighten a seemingly glum day. I once remember referring to Dr. Paulos as "pathologically happy." Although I've never seen such a diagnosis written in the literature, it surely describes him best. He is the most positive person I've ever known. He was alway there for a few words of encouragement in times of need.

We appreciate you, we miss you, and Arrowhead Clinic was lucky to have you.
