So sorry to hear of Paul's passing. I grew up at Indpls Raceway Park and Edgewater Sports Park and watched He and Tom race many times. He was a true racing innovator and a great competitor. Watching he and Tom race the 57 Chevy , the Pontiac wagon and the Top Fuel car was an inspiration to many of us young gear heads. God speed and strength to the family. Tom.

I lost a great friend that I have lost touch with over the years. I've included a photo I hope you got of Paul racing Shirley Muldowny at a match race at Kil Kare in Xenia may he rest in peace

My husband and I are very sad hearing about Paul's passing. We sat by him for years at church. He was such a humble man and will be greatley missed. I will never forget the time my husband and I asked him to pray for my up coming surgery and Paul stopped right there and put his hands on both of us and started praying! He was a true man of God and is smiling down on all of us!

We are Praying for family and friends....Paul will be greatly missed. He cared for all of us...in ways often unseen or unnoticed. He was usually embarressed and tried to refuse credit, when his efforts were noticed. He was a humble and caring man. Thankful our lord led him to our church, and used him to serve our congregation.
