Paul Muro was born to Julia and Pablo Muro August 9,1930. Paul met the love of his life Mary Esther Garcia at the age of 19 years old.

Paul served his country in the U.S. Navy and then the two settled down in Colton, California where they raised their 4 children. Paul worked his earlier years with the Railroad and then was involved in the grocery business for many years. This included several years where he and Mary & Paul's younger brother, Dan, were self-employed with their own grocery store. Paul worked for Stater Brothers for 25+ years before taking his early retirement and moving to Orange County and settling in at the beach of San Clemente which had been a childhood dream.
