Paul was a man of great intellect and intelligence; he was talented clever and very logical. He would read, analyze, and investigate everything he did to find the best approach to the situation. He was always coming up with new ingenious ways of looking and doing things to make life easier. ( He was also the first to point out how you could improve on what you were doing with or without his requested help)

Professionally- He was committed, dedicated, competent and accomplished. There was never a time that when he did not commit his efforts or expertise to any task or assignment, that he couldn’t find a way to make it better or more meaningful.
