Born in Columbus, Kentucky, Paul was seven of nine children. Paul joined the Brothers of Good Shepherd, whose members profess public vows of chastity, poverty and obedience.

For many years Paul was the Executive Director at Camillus House in Miami, a multi-purpose facility for homeless and indigent individuals and families, providing emergency service, drug and alcohol abuse treatment and transitional housing. As one of his many accomplishments Paul raised funds to build a $4.5 million dollar free clinic. In 1988 he was named one of the “Ten People who Most Affect Dade County” and in 1999, he was presented a Papal Award from Archbishop John Favalora. Paul has been presented with a Key to the City of Miami by the Mayor of Miami.

Having been with Catholic Health Services for nearly ten years Paul oversees pastoral and spiritual services at both Our Lady of Mercy and Queen of Heaven cemeteries.
