I am so saddened to just hear this news. I knew Paul before but came to know him well through his visits to job sites where I was the builder/superintendent for local track/custom home builders.and Paul would put together the framing packages as needed. I looked forward to his visits because the conversation would always drift to other areas. We talked about everything. Paul shared great memories, and maybe some tales ,about the neighborhood he grew up in and my family now lives in.
I just wanted to share that It was a pleasure to have known him.
My prayers go out to Paul’s family and friends.
Joseph Draper and family
