He graduated from Kent Meridian High School in 2015. God, family and basketball were his passions in life. He and his father shared a love for the North Carolina Tar Heels. He loved shoes and was a fashion trendsetter. He had a goofy personality with an infectious smile and a generous spirit that touched everyone he met.<\/p>\n
On the day Paul left this earth his nephew, Antony Paul was born bringing a bright light to a very dark time. We believe he high fived his Uncle Paul on his way from the heavens.<\/p>\n
