Paul graduated from LaSalle High School with the Class of ''75; he worked as a plumber & pipefitter. "An avid outdoorsman and hunter, equally deadly with a bow or gun. We are all a bit upset he took his best mushrooming spots with him. Beagle breeder and trainer, good hunting partner, a great brother and powered parachute pilot; a man of principal and conviction. He could spin a good yarn and loved a good joke; he will be sorely missed". In addition to his parents, Paul was also preceded in death by his sister, Eileen M. Slusser.
