Paul is my first cousin Cudahy , Wisconsin
I have had the pleasure of knowing Paul my entire life. I last saw Paul at my Folks house on 4-July-21 and we were bags partners; got to semi-finals round together. I love Paul as does the entire Ruszczynski family. He will be missed. I am sorry Julie and I will be unable to attend. I am a OTR Semi Truck driver these days and won’t be home until my first wedding anniversary with Julie on 5-September. If we could make it we would. God Bless the entire Nielsen Family. God Bless my beautiful cousin Paul. 😎â¤ï¸

Paul and I seved in the Corps together, including time in California and "The Rock" (Okinawa). Let me tell you, we had some great times and raised a lot of hell. I always loved him and will surely miss him. He had rough edges but a heart of gold. Fair winds and following seas. Semper Fi, Brother.

Dear Logan, Diane and Kyle I am so sorry you have lost your father! I met you when you all when you were kids on a trip to Baraboo with Jim! Paul was very dear to Jim and visa versa as you know from the tattoo he has of Jim over his heart! ….They are together again! It is so hard on those of us left behind! Paul was very supportive of me as were Tom, Debbie and Erik when Jim passed! We were all there for each other! It saddens me to know Paul is gone too! Stick together and love each other! Sending prayers and love to you and all family and friends! Maria
