Paul was an interesting and funny man. His jokes weren’t always the best, but he was the best. He will be greatly missed. Maybe God has some airplanes for him to fix and tinker with in Heaven. I wouldn’t surprise me as God thinks of everything and knows what makes us happy. My sympathies to his dear sons, the rest of the family, and his dear companion Dolores. God bless you all!

So sorry to hear of Pauls passing. I was a neighbor from over the hill and spent many happy childhood days at the Lepkowski farm growing up.
Paul was a few years older than me and my memory of him is that he was always busy working. One time he made some stilts and allowed us to try them. What a great big brother he was to us.

Hi Brian! I live in Cleveland and we went to the same church for a while — Cuyahoga Valley Church and to Len’s Bible study in North Royalton. I met your brother Dan once at the Bible study. I am so very sorry for your loss. I sent Dolores an email on Saturday with helpful information for your dad — he read it several times. I pray God gives you comfort at this time. With love, Nanci
