"We were so sorry to hear about Rocky. Your entire family has such a special place in our hearts. Rocky's smile could light up a room and all are much better people who have had the pleasure to meet him… Scott, Shavonne, Meghan, and Cameron Bauer" ~ Shavonne Bauer, Springboro, Ohio

"In high school Paul always made me smile and seemed to have this constant positive energy that made every room brighten up when he entered. Now he can brighten up heaven as he did when he was he with all of us. With every death there is sadness, denial and anger, but Paul would not want us to be sad or upset. Paul would want us to remember the good times we shared with him…" ~ Alison Gay, Miamisburg, Ohio

"Paul was one of the most genuine guys in high school, he always knew how to make people feel better about themselves and gave 110% to friendships. I am blessed to say that I knew him, and proud to know he died fighting to do what he did best, make people feel safe. Paul always had a smile on his face, and in my heart I feel he would want us to celebrate his life and not his mourn his death. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and heart go out to his wife and son. Paul will never be forgotten, but always missed. RIP Paul." ~ Amberly Campbell, Miamisburg, Ohio
