A proud graduate of Cardinal Ritter High School, Class of 1978. Paul was a dedicated athlete and a member of the 1977 IHSAA State Championship football team. To this day, he holds the school and state record for most field goals made in a State Championship. A testament to his determination and talent. He continued his education at St. Joseph’s College, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in education.

Paul had a gift for connecting with young people, which he shared through coaching youth football. He especially cherished the time spent on the field with his son Jake, teaching not only the fundamentals of the game but the values of teamwork and perseverance.

He was a devout Catholic and a diehard Notre Dame fan. He enjoyed being security and organizing events at Crestwood / Neighborcare. Paul found deep joy in the simple things: cheering for the Irish, spending time with his family, being with his son Jake, and spoiling his sweet grand-dog Ava.

A funeral Mass will be held at St. Malachy Catholic Church on Tuesday June 17, 2025 at 10:00 am.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Paul’s honor to the American Diabetes Association or the American Heart Association.
