Diane - I don't know if you remember me but we worked together at Pierce South CSO. I am so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. I had several contacts with Paul while working at Western State Hospital in the Personnel Office. I can remember Paul coming over frustrated when he was trying to get his well deserved promotion. Paul was always pleasant and cheerful, cracking jokes even when frustrated. Whenever needed for a Maintenance issue he was always there when called. This is a tremendous loss for you and the family. Paul was a wonderful person and it is truly a shame that he passed at such a young age with several good years ahead. I guess we never know why these things happen to good people. My heart is with you and the family. Take care of yourself.

Our hearts are sad for the loss of Paul. His family will sorely miss him. He brightened those around him with his sense of humor and his optimism. He was a mostly a happy person. I believe that he found some joy in almost every thing he did. He was so generous and he could always be depended on to lend a hand. He helped us with many projects and we enjoyed the unity it brought to us. The joy of our times together with Paul and Diane at our river property will never be forgotten. Paul had a great love for the water, he loved boating and camping. His always put his family first, especially his “Honey”. Diane, Michelle, Malinda, Jason, and Rick were blessed by his devotion, as were his own children. Thank you Paul for loving and caring for Diane’s family in such a loving way.
I am so glad for the opportunity to have been your “Monday and Tuesday girl”. We had some great country side drives and lunches. The rest of our hours were spent learning to be better cooks! So we say “Farewell Paul” and we are comforted knowing you are probably whipping up some Raspberry Truffles right now for your angel friends in Heaven.

Paul you da man! But you knew that already. In my youth you would tell Malinda and I countless times to slow down and not grow up so fast, that there is plenty of time in front of you. Well you taught me that everyday has to be lived to the fullist and I know that you accomplished this. You were a loving and supporting man to Diane and the kids. You always made sure your total family was taken care of. Thank you for all you had to offer. You will truly be missed.

My father was and always will be my Best Friend. He was always there when I needed him. I will truly miss him. I hope I made him proud of me because I was ever so proud of him - the fact he was my father. Words cannot express how much he truly meant to me. I'm so glad he found true happiness when he met Diane. I'm just glad I got to tell my father I love him. I hope that I can handle losing my Hero!! I will truly miss him. Dad if you can hear me,
"I Will Always Love You !!!!"

My Poppa, was a very strong man through the years. These traits carried over to his kids; (courage, strenght, love, honor). He was proud of his heritage of what the young family is all about, look at our family shield. We are winners and we do survive no matter what happens! Poppa was very stong till his end, but in my eyes and everyone else's is still stonger than ever in our hearts and minds, will remain throught out the years to come. Poppa was not just a father , but was the best friend you always wanted, was to me, my brother Bryan. Poppa, he touched so many people in his life, also showed it through his work. You can see in his eyes and heart, what he called tuffness (the will to go far!). He always has been there by his kids side. Poppa was a true AMERICAN, he was proud that his boys were defending his rights and freedoms and for the counrty and OUR FLAG!!!! (that represents FREEDOM!!!!) In the end, my poppa was a true man, father, friend, especially an TRUE AMERICAN!!! What I will charish about my father is, he never gave up!!!and thats what will be installed in the next generations to come, He will live in his families hearts and minds and will never be forgotten years to come.
I love you Poppa, you are a true best friend and my HERO always, will truely be missed!!!! LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER< POPPA>

I worked with Paul about three years and I'll never forget Paul for who he was. We had alot of fun times together and I think of him often and miss him greatly. He could allways make me laugh as you never new what he was going to say or do next. It's just not the same here at work without him. My sympathy to the family.

Our sincere symphany goes out to Diane and family in the loss of a very dear loved one "Doughboy". As Paul's friend for over the last twenty years, he meant a lot to me and I was very blessed to have him as my "Buddy". Paul and I did a lot together especially when he was on evening shift. The weekly luncheons at the Valley Bar and Grille, camping trips, evenings in the hot tub, getting in trouble, and in his final months being able to spend time with my "Buddy" and watching all of the cooking shows on TV and commenting on the cooks has really meant a lot to my life. He was a true trusted friend, that I will miss him very deeply. I can truely say that his passing has left a spot in my heart and life empty, but I know that we will meet again in heaven where there will be no more pain and suffering. Until we meet again "Buddy" sleep well. Thanks for your true love and being there when I needed you my
true "BUDDY". WE LOVE AND MISS YOU.

I was shocked and said when I read the news in the paper. I grew up hanging around Diane's son Jason, and I knew Paul for many years when I was younger. I have not seen him for quite a few years, but I will always remember his down-to-earth sense of humor and his kindness. My thoughts go out to the entire family.

Paul- You are my best friend. I spent 19 wonderful years with you. You encouraged me to laugh with you and you comforted me in time of sorrow and struggles. You had my love in good times and during the bad times, when life was easy and when it was hard. I will always cherish you and the memories we made made together. I will always hold you close and near to my heart. You entered not only my life but the lives of my children. You were always there for them and they could always come to you and knew that they could count on you to do whatever you could for them. They respect and love you for the person you are and what you added to our family. You never treated them any different and they will cherish the relationship they have with you as they know that you treasured the special bond with each one. You will be greatly missed!

Paul Young Sr. - An Ex-husband’s Perspective
Paul Young Sr. was a very decent man. I say this because while I did not spend a lot of personal time with him, over the years he always treated me with respect, as a friend, and as the father of Diane’s children.
I remember the first words that he spoke to me. I had driven up to the house and he was in the garage working on something (as he often was doing). I got out of the car and he approached me and said: “Hi. I’m Paul Young.” He extended his hand and we shook hands. From that moment onward he was always a gentleman.
Later, whether it was daughter Michelle’s wedding or our son Rick’s funeral and memorial service, he insisted on remaining in the background, even while he too, had every right to be seated next to the children’s mother, Diane.
Meanwhile, as part of a blended-family, and during much of our children’s childhood, and beyond, he was there, offering his support or assistance when he could, when I was often not there to do so.
Finally, to all of those immediate family members and longstanding friends, who took their time to care for Paul or to just be with him this past 5-months, I offer a sincere and heartfelt “Thank you!”
In closing, I would like you all to consider and reflect upon the hope expressed in the following verse:
2 Corinthians 4 vs. 16: Therefore we do not lose heart though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen. For what is unseen is eternal…
The memories of Paul will long be treasured…Now he soars like those eagles that he so admired.

I remember staying over at Uncle Paul's and cutting my toe on a piece of glass. Without hesitation, he scooped me up and took me to the hospital. I remember thinking he was my night in shining armour. It was almost an enjoyable experience because of Uncle Paul. He made me laugh. I'll always remember his magnetic personality combined with his silliness to make him a wonderful uncle. I know Uncle Paul is now cracking everyone up in heaven right now.

I was a friend and neighbor to Paul Young and his sister Karen when they were growing up in Tacoma. I lived just down the street, and we spent a lot of time together. We didn't see much of each other after I moved. However, much later, his oldest son, Paul, Jr., was my student while attending seventh grade at Cedarcrest Junior High in Spanaway. As was his father, Paul, Jr., was a wonderful young man who I admired. I offer my sincere condolences to all of the family. I hope your memories of Paul, Sr., will sustain you during this very difficult time.

PAUL,even in the mist of tragedy there are moments worth savoring. I savor the memory of the day we both exceped Jesus as our Lord and Savior. I don't know how God makes things all right ; I just know that he does. I know that without a shadow of a dought that God is here, God is still on the throne: it's going to be all right! I will see you again just like Jesus promised! Welcome Home!!!

I will never forget him calling his boss to say one of us died so he could extend his vacation. The fantastic thing is, he got away with it!

To the family of Paul, we send our sympathy to you.
We remember many good times with you. We had such fun at Westport swimming in the pool, walking the beach, playing "greedy, greedy" and laughing at all your jokes. We remember going to Cresant Bar and getting our thrills on the jet ski and falling off the jet ski! The sand bar was a great place to have a drink and soak up the sun. You have been a great friend to us Paul, and we will miss you greatly.

My thoughts and prayer are with your family and also for his brother John and sister-in law Tami. I knew Paul many years ago when his sister was in Job's Daughters with my two girls. Our families had good times together at the tree lot. I know his passing will leave a void and they tell me time will take care of that, however I am not so certain of that as I am still at a loss without my husband. Please accept my sincere sympathy and I will remember all of you in my prayers. Mrs. Leroy Williams
