Paris lived a life full of laughter, happiness and love. Paris was a hard worker and put 100% in to everything he did. He really enjoyed gaming and sketching.  He loved spending time with his children, they were his reason for living; he just loved all kids in general.  He was known as “Uncle P” to so many. Of course, everyone’s kids loved him; because Paris was always just a kid at heart himself.

Paris was loved by so many, just as he loved so many so very deeply. He was very passionate about all of those that he cared for and to know him was truly a blessing.

Just as Paris was always so very giving during his life it didn’t stop him from doing the very same in death.  Paris was a registered organ donor.  His family is so very proud to say that Lifebanc notified them that he personally saved the lives of 3 different people.  He will always be a hero to those three strangers just as he always will be to his family.
