Heartbroken. I have no words. A rarity.

If there’s a next chapter, he deserves the best our humble universe has to offer.

Godspeed.

Such sad news, I would always read his replies as they were so well written and interesting.

He will be sorely missed.

I didn't realize until now, that he was "Captain Morgan", LOL! How awesome is that.

Oh crap!

I did not see the post of his passing.

I am so sorry….. thank you for letting me know, there is nothing I can say to recover from this monumental error.

He was a good man, and will be missed.

The poor guy got so many bottles of Captain Morgan’s from his men that he had to donate them to a charity for hobos or something.

Does anybody have a pic of him? (or an online pic somewhere? After all these years behind the keyboard and personal phone calls I've had with him years ago, it just occurred to me that i'm not sure that I've ever known what he looks like? Would like to put a face with the name to help close.

He posted one of himself from years ago when he was still in uniform. IDK how to do that type of search.

There is a pic of Paul "getting his wings" (if that is the phrase) in uniform, and I recall a pic from when he looked like a 70's porn star from years ago too .

Somewhere ... there are several in the archives for sure.

SO sorry to hear of Pauls passing. He had been my sounding board as our kids are near the same age. RIP Capatin Morgan, We have the watch.

RIP to Seahawk. And prayers for his family.

I never met him and I only DMd him on a personal matter once. But yet I'm gutted by the loss of this Legend. This hurts.

His stories, wisdom, humor, and grace benefitted us all and made this forum (and surely the real world around him) a much better place.

May we all endeavor to leave a positive impact even a fraction of the size that he's bestowed on us.

Condolences to Paul's family.

Only knew him through here but always seemed one of the good guys.

Paul was the best of us. I've been on this board too long; very few of the departed members have brought out this kind of outpouring. Grady, Angela...now Paul.
