Paul enjoyed working in radio and television engineering, Christian music production, and transporting engineers and conductors for Canadian National Railway out of Battle Creek. He also worked in credit management for VISA International in San Meteo, CA and LeRan Copper & Brass in Coldwater.
Outside of work, Paul enjoyed keeping up with news, weather, and politics. He liked collecting coins and was deeply interested in everything about full-size trains. He had a generous and giving heart and always put family first. Paul knew and served Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. He was a member of Coldwater Baptist Church. He enjoyed living and sharing his favorite Bible verses: Galatians 5:22-23, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
