5 Mar 2023Paul was a classmate of mine in Alamosa High School. We graduated together with the class of 1959. We used to go hunting and running around with other friends. We always enjoyed each other’s company. I’m sorry that we lost touch after we both left Alamosa.. I wish all the best for his daughter.
