Paul grew up in Grady where he enjoyed hunting and fishing. For many years he enjoyed planting a garden. Out of all things he planted, sunflowers were always his favorite. He loved his church, Calvary Baptist and all the church family that he grew to know over the years. Paul was a kind and loving father to his three daughters. His grandchildren could always depend on their "Papa" to share peppermints that he kept in his pocket. The memories, laughter and love will always be cherished by his entire family.
