His life
Everybody loves Paul. He was the person who would help, fix, explain, or share what he knew—usually before anyone had to ask.
Paul built a long career in water technology, beginning with Osmonics in 1977 and continuing through GE Osmonics, GE Water & Process Technologies, Pentair, and Nanostone Water. Over nearly four decades, he was known not only for what he knew, but for how generously he shared that knowledge with others.
He died peacefully on September 17, 2026, after living with stage IV pancreatic cancer for sixteen months. This page will continue to grow with the photographs and stories that capture the humor, care, and ordinary moments that made Paul so deeply loved.
Through the years
The family is gathering photographs from throughout Paul’s life. A selection will be shared here after everyone has had time to contribute.
For family contributorsFamily members can use the shared password to open the private photo-upload page. Your contributions will help us build the gallery and preserve these memories together.
