Paul has lived in West Deer in the home he helped build for the past 60 years. He was a member of Our Lady of the Lakes Parish, West Deer Township, the Church Men's Club and the Etna Elks. Paul could be seen most Thursdays volunteering at the church bingo. He enjoyed hunting, Pittsburgh sports, traveling to Deep Creek, Md., and going to the casino, though his biggest love was his family, especially his grandchildren.
