    TJ and family please accept my deepest sympathy in your dad’s passing. He was a friend and valued colleague during our time at A-B. He was incredibly proud of you and your family. I’m thankful that he retired early and enjoyed his grandchildren.

    I am very sorry to hear this news. Paul was one of the best persons I had the privilege to work with at AB. A hard worker, sincere, honest and full of integrity. He was a great person! My sympathy to his family.

    Paul was a perfect gentleman. Enjoyed talking high school sports with him. Enjoyed his company and sense of humor. He was probably the only one who appreciated my jokes.
    Rest in Peace Paul

    Paul was one of the most kind people . that I have ever known. If you didn’t like Paul you were the problem, not Paul. We had many laughs at A-B. It was a pleasure knowing him.
    May God bless the Nishimoto family.

    I am saddened to hear about Paul. I worked in the same group as Paul for many years so I got to interact with him On a daily basis. We had many business lunches, golf outings and a couple of trips together. He had a dry sense of humor, was very smart and truly a fun and easy guy to be around. He never complained and was always a
    hard worker. A great employee and individual. Condolences to his family.

    So sorry to hear about Paul’s passing. He was a private man but always had a kind and funny thing to say. We used to laugh about silly things, and I’m sad to hear this. On secretary’s day he came to work with chocolate covered straberries for the ladies. He loved the game of golf and would always jump at the opportunity to play. I used to tease him about how many cars he had. We had a running joke about painting his condo. I said I would help him, but what color did he want. “White'” was his response. So I used to leave white paint samples on his desk. It was a fun thing that we laughed about. A good man gone too soon. My condolences to his son and grandchildren. God Bless Paul. Will remember him in my prayers.
