  1. The. Best DAD EVER! Kind, loving, sweet, generous, understanding and oh, let me say again! LOVING. Dad always had a shoulder for us kids and a BIG HUG whenever we needed it!! He will be missed! But he is in myHEART….ALWAYS!!

  2. Rest Paul, until you hear at dawn, the low, clear reveille of God. Thank you for your service to this nation. U.S. Air Force.

  3. Dad, you were the Best a Son could have. You taught me many things about Life,Love, Respect and Compassion. I would not be the Man I am today without You! I Love You! I Miss You So Much, but Rest now. I’ll be with You Soon.

  4. Gordon was such a fun cousin. Most of my memories are when I was little. I would stay at Aunt Ruth and Uncle Paul’s house. Gordon’s bedroom was upstairs and I would sit on the stairs. I would inch my way up the stairs until they would make me come back down. Then Gordon would tickle me. He will be missed so much.

  5. My Grandpa (Vern) and Gordon’s Dad (Paul) were brothers, which makes us 2nd cousins, whew! I knew of Gordon growing up but did not get to know him until we both worked at Boeing in Wichita. I would often go to Gordon’s building for a meeting and when I saw him he would introduce me to his co-workers. My condolences to his family and Susan, thank you for bringing him thru Oklahoma this past July. It was nice to visit with him about old times. I’m sorry that will be the last time we got to see him. Mike and Mary Miller

    • I am so so very thankful that we were able to make that trip, he talked about seeing you and Mary quite often ❤️❤️

  6. Paul was my boss for many , many years, and he was one of the best. Always listened to the guys in his group, treated everyone fairly and always kept a calm demeaner. He was a person that you wanted to emulate. We truly missed him when he retired. He even dated my mom once way back when, what a small world. Rest in peace and prayers to all your family.

  7. The Midian Shriners send their love and sympathy on the passing of Paul. He was a good man who will be missed by his family and many friends.

  8. I had the honor of having Mr & Mrs Miller as regulars at Knollas when I was younger. every tuesday they would come in, he was always the perfect gentleman and held that door open and got his wife sat down and taken care of before ordering. We always looked forward to seeing them. They were one of the kindest, loving couples, and very obviously loved by many. My thoughts are with all their family and friends, they touched many hearts.
