We first met back in the late 90's when you were the warehouse king at the Rendezvous and I was the night prep cook and somehow they put me in your department which made you my boss! Best boss I ever had! From your funny stories about driving the bun wagon cat, your crazy ski bum & party antics, living in your van and being excited about meeting a special girl who became your wife. Our paths crossed again several years later and I enjoyed spending quality time with you in the summers where you impressed us with your culinary skills.... thanks to M&M meat shops! ha! I haven't seen you much in person since those days but we kept in touch thanks to Facebook and I've loved seeing you transform into an awesome Dad and teaching Colt the ways of the mountains. You are definitely the guy who makes the funniest and most smartassed comments on my posts and I love you Al ❤️

On Thursday June 10th, 2021, in the twelfth round of a ten year match, just before the ding of the bell, Al Paul packed up his big heart, stubborn soul, radiant smile, crossed the ropes, and walked away from his battle with brain cancer.
Al left the world the way he lived in it, on his own terms and with his wife and son by his side. “Armed with will, and determination and grace too.”
He is neck deep in powder now, or shooting the round of his life with any angel lucky enough to join him.
Al wanted everyone to know that life is beautiful, worth every adventure you
say yes to, and a perfect day can be as large as a long walk up a mountain or as simple as a movie day on the couch with the people you love. Also (and he really can’t stress this enough): He was the best skier on the mountain.

Agree, Michelle - always a little nerve-wracking trying to keep a step ahead of the Al Paul Facebook smart-ass factor!
