Although it’s hard to summarize a man’s life in a few short sentences and such a great man at that… If one were to summarize who Michael Papp was it would be:

• A man who loved justice, which was evident by his life as a Deputy Sheriff for Los Angeles County

• A man who loved a good joke and was not shy to show his silly side

• A man who enjoyed being in the outdoors with green trees. He moved from California to

Oregon so he could enjoy having some space with green trees

• A man who showed his love through giving quality gifts

• A man who set aside his time so he could talk to his wife nightly and talk to his sons every weekend

• A man who put others and their feelings before his own

• A man who was humble

• A trustworthy man

• A man who really enjoyed technology and a good video game

• A man who wasn’t afraid of a little hard work

• A man who loved his horse

• And most important and although this is listed last… Michael Papp is best known as a man who loved God with all his heart, mind, soul, and strength. In fact his belief and trust in God never wavered
