He grew up in Sturgeon Bay attending primary school and high school there.

In 1983 Paul met the love of his life, Carol Brown. Together they enjoyed playing pool and remodeling homes they lived in. Paul became an integral part of Carol’s family and her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren thought of him as Poppa. Paul pursued upper education degrees, graduating with high honors from Salt Lake Community College.
