Dear Spencer, Libba and Mern, 
I learned today, for the first time, of Paul's death. Don't know how I missed it back in October but that happened and I apologize for having been remiss in keeping up with good friends. I am so sorry that it has been such a long time since I saw Paul but I usually saw him on medical visits where he would put me in that booth and let me listen to all those beeps and squeaks after which he would, always, with that nice smile, say the same thing, "You can't hear worth a damn." Believe it or not I was just about on my way to see Paul and have him prescribe that hearing aid he had been advising me to get for a long time. Too bad I waited. I remember Paul with great fondness and am very sorry that he is gone. I watched the video and understood quickly what a full, happy and useful life he lived. I don't think it gets much better than that. Paul's family will miss him sorely and I will miss not having him available to tell me the obvious when it skips my mind which is that "you can't hear."  Best Regards and Condolences to all of the Atwater's

I was a classmate at Westminster with Paul and I don't ever remember not seeing him with a smile.  He had such a kind, thoughtful presence.  Treasure your memories.

It was an honor and pleasure sharing July 14 with this great man. So blessed to have known him, both as my doctor and, in subsequent years, as a friend.

Libba- I am so sorry

To Ann, Carleton, and Patrick.. so very sorry and shocked to hear of Dr. A's passing. I was out of state at the time. In addition to being my employer for 13 years, he was a wonderful friend for over 30! It has truly been an honor to be associated with him and your family. Love and prayers to all of you.

Paul was a High School buddy along with Phin Calhoun, maybe George Wiley would share joys and challenges of growing up. Recall bumping heads in football practice with he and brother spencer, visits to their family home on Howell Mill & Peachtree Battle ave near the creek, where we visited frogs and salamanders with muddy feet and enthusiasm.  Was Judson Simmons with us on those romps in creek---Jud lived up on West Wesly and was in a school ride to Westy on West Wesly, and may have played a boyhood trick or 2 on young Paul...Woopie Cushion, was it?
Bill Stembler -- and now past older bro John Stembler would have some of us over night and before bedtime get in a good natured friendly? bb gun battle---had to have your leather jacket & glasses on--to re-enact some smaller scermish of civil war---Sherman's advance held back by us 12 year old rebel soldiers with pop airguns and green rat caps on backwards as infantrymen of 100 years before....
Alas Paul --- we will miss you, but great to know you and family of growing up in 1960s.

Paul was a great cousin.  He left us with lots of lasting memories and laughs.  Love to All,

Stewart and Anne Saunders
