"Paul meant so much to so many of us... though I don't know what happened, I know he spent some time struggling toward the end of his life. I wanted to share a song of his that I've been blessed to play a lot over the years, and some words about what he meant to me. https://trustdarkness.com/blog/2019/07/05/better-way/"

Tributes
"Dear Seul Family, I want to extend my deepest sympathy on the passing of Paul. I hope you find peace and comfort from the fond memories you have of him. Pour out your heart to God in prayer concerning your need for comfort during this time of sorrow. I hope you can find comfort from the encouraging scripture in the Bible at 2Corinthians 1:3,4."
"I worked with Paul at Barnes & Noble. He sparked my interest in music and always knew which albums I would love. See you later, friend. "
"Paul brought a special energy to Broadway Records when he worked there. I was at times overwhelmed with the busy-ness of retail, so his own special charm and fun disposition was welcome, even if I didn't always "get" his generation. I sold him a classic guitar amp a few years ago which I regretted, but felt was a blessing on a family man wanting to enjoy the hobby of doing a proper restore. "
"I worked with Paul at Mayo. He was fun and caring. Hugs and love to all of you. Paul will be missed. --Dorrie Seaver"
"Thinking of all the Seul family, Jamie, and of course the girls in this difficult time. Hoping everyone the best in healing and coming to terms with the loss of such a wonderful human being. My favorite memory of Paul is tough to nail down--they were all so fun and pleasant. I'm a serious person, but Paul made me laugh like a little boy and together we could let go of our stresses and give each other respite, if only for a short while. I'll miss those opportunities always, but I am so very thankful that I had them while I did. "
