Upon graduation Paul worked for the Mobil Oil Company in St. Louis. As he found he didn't like the work, they returned to Chicago where he worked for Continental Can Company (later called Crown, Cork and Seal), until his retirement in 1994. He was a research scientist working to invent new products like an easy-open/flip-top beverage can.
Paul was diagnosed with asthma in 1978 and in retirement moved to Westbrook Village, AZ. The dry heat renewed his health and he was able to enjoy 18 holes of golf two or three times a week as well as a passion for travel and fishing trips to Wisconsin cabin owned by some long-time friends. He also was the president of the Northwestern Alumni Club of Sun Cities for several years, chairman of his and Pat's 50th high school class reunion, and was chairman of the Torrey Pines Christmas Decorating Committee, which had not been completed when he died of an aneurysm.
Paul is survived by his wife, Pat; son Michael, and his family: Sue, Amanda, Sean, Tommy, and Nicole; his brothers, four cousins, three nieces and two nephews.
