He lived in Fort Duchesne, Utah until he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in March 1960 retiring with an honorable discharge on July 13, 1967. Paul's military career included combat engineer, marine barracks guard, and rifle marksmanship instructor, followed by a promotion to military police sergeant, He received the National Defense Service Medal, Rifle Expert Medal and Good Conduct Medal. After his military career, Paul began his painting trade for 40+ years and continued painting as a hobby after retirement.
Paul's passion for genealogy research has left a written legacy for his children, grandchildren, and extended family. He enjoyed bowling, fishing, western music, movies, and painting his abstract art on any spare piece of wood he could find. If there wasn't one nearby, he would just start painting the walls. Mostly, he loved just sitting and visiting with everyone and discussing anything and everything. And playing his favorite game with the grandkids "Pull My Finger".
