My name is Mitchell Brown. I remember Paul coming to my moms house in Roan Mountain when I was 12 years old, talking about being in Viet Nam and his brother dying beside him on the battlefield. At that time he was selling insurance. My condolences to all the family and thank you Paul for your service! RIP Paul
