Paul was a loving husband, father, brother, grandpa, known as “Papa”, uncle, and friend. He
enjoyed being outdoors, puttering in his yard and swimming daily in the lake with his wife. Paul
& Ebba attended Bible Fellowship Church and are so grateful for their love and support.
Paul was always a gearhead. His passion was cars and what made them tick. He was a lifelong
NASCAR fan.
