He was a 1967 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School and attended Youngstown State University.
Paul worked as a supervisor for Indalex Aluminum and later at U.S. Steel in Cleveland, retiring after many years of dedicated service.
A man of Christian faith, Paul regularly attended Highway Tabernacle.
He enjoyed the outdoors, family cookouts, pool parties, and trips to amusement parks with his loved ones. He especially cherished vacations to the ocean and took great joy in spoiling his grandchildren and great-grandchildren—especially during the holidays.
