I have known Paul since his days at Chenango Valley High School.  He and my son, Craig Ehrie, were buddies.  There are many great memories.
They were always in trouble though.  Imagine that.
We lost a good one.

Oh Kate.... I can not tell you how sorry I am for your Loss! It was always fun to see him with you in the office he could always make us smile and laugh!! Please know how sorry I am and you and those precious boys are in my thoughts and prayers! Stay strong for your babies and God Bless you and your family. With my Deepest Sympathy,Amy Lavo (Broome OB)

Patti, my condolences to you and your family. God be with you.

Kate and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Hugs to you at this sad time. 
Patrick and Angela Harrington

I met Paul as a fellow Rotary Club of Hillcrest member and he was one of our tireless members ready to help out on any projects that enhanced the community. His input and willingness to pitch in will be missed. My condolences to the family.

Kate, We are soo sorry to hear of your terrible loss. 
Our Family is keeping your family in our thoughts & prayers. The Pierces

Kate, I am so sorry to hear this news.  Paul was always a good time at the Mexican parties!  I know this sounds cliché but the memories truly help get you thru the worst of days.  Prayers and love being sent your way.

From BMX  and motorcycles at good ole Belden Hill to high school memories and even a rap song we once wrote I can't help to look back with a big smile , and a chuckle. Even after many years post high school running into Paul was always just like where you left off even if 5 years prior! A one of a kind good man, friend to many , husband , dad and son on and on.  Gone to soon. 

My sincere condolences to wife Kate, the boys and all extended family and friends.

Kate ~Thinking of you and your family during this difficult time. I know Paulie's legacy will live on through your beautiful children. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten. And you will always have an angel by your sides. May he rest in peace...

Sorry for yoir loss.  Paulie was a great guy and will definately be missed.

Our condolences on the loss of your loved one. May the love of family and friends help you through the grieving.

I am so sorry for your loss.  Paul was a great person and will be missed dearly.  It breaks my heart that he is gone.

My thoughts and prayers to everyone who knew Paul. I met him through our friend Gina and instantly fell in love with him as all do when you met him. He was truly one of the nicest people you could meet, a larger than life soul.

I feel truly heartbroken by this unexpected loss...I knew Paul for so many years, first as my brother's friend, Brian's best friend, someone who crashed at or lived at our house, and then I worked side by side with him for over 3 years at East End.  My deepest condolences go out to Kate, his children, family and MANY friends.  So many fun memories with him and Brian, Sally and Rich and with Kate...Love you Pauly.  So glad we talked on the phone a few months back and he said he was proud of me. 
 Loved ya like another brother...RIP

Dave and Patti, I am so very sorry for your loss.  Although I have not seen Paul in many years, I can still remember all the fun times our families shared as we were growing up. Prayers to you and your family. Michelle Buman Nutter

Pat, Dave & Kate - Our hearts are broken and we can't imagine the pain that you're going through.  Paul was larger than life and a dear friend.  So many fond memories..... We continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

My heart breaks for you.
My most sincere condolences to Paul's family.  So so sorry for your loss. 
Although I didn't know Paul long,  and only worked with him briefly at Serafinis', he proved himself to to a helpful, kind and loyal person with a jovial personality.  He was an attribute to our team here.  We were sad to see him leave, but we were equally happy that he had finally acquired the job he Truly wanted.

I am so heartbroken to hear of this sad event.  He was always nice to me.  And even though I haven't seen him for quite a while I will always remember him and his hugs he gave me.  It is such a tragedy when you lose someone who seemed to make the world a better, happy place.  God Bless  Your are all in my prayers.

We are honored & blessed to have known Paul. He was truly one of a kind. As his wonderful and gentle soul is ascended to heaven, may god give him eternal rest and his loved ones the strength to bear this tremendous pain. We pray that the love and care of those around you, provide comfort and peace to get you through the days ahead.
We will never forget his kindness and sense of humor and he will forever remain in our hearts.

You will be missed by so many my friend, such a great guy taken too soon. Prayers for your family during this awful time

To Kate and your boys, Mr. & Mrs. McDaniels, and all of Paul's extended family - my heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to all of you. 

I'm struggling to find the words here and nothing will ever suffice, but I will just simply say that Paul was a wonderful guy and touched many people in his life; we will miss him dearly and are better for having known him.

To Paul (Pauly, McNasty, the Eggman), quite simply put, I'm going to miss you man. I had a lot of great times with you on the football field, in the cage, and the parties that we shared in and experienced. 

Always funny and quick with a quip, you brought smiles and laughs to all of us around you. That uncanny knack to bring a spark to a dull room. You will be sorely missed my friend, and are one of the good ones. Godspeed, and memories are eternal.

Love and prayers to all.  So very sorry for your loss.

My sympathy to Kate and her boys - my heart goes out to all of you and your families.  There are no words - he was so young. May God hold you in the palm of His hand and see you through the days ahead.
Kathy Corey Botting

I'm truly stunned to hear the news of Paul's passing, and it's so hard to believe that he's gone.  To know him was to love him, and no matter who you speak to, everyone has a "Paulie" story they'll never forget.  Whenever his name was brought up, people instantly began to smile..that was Paul! 

My heartfelt condolences go out to the entire McDaniels family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. He touched so many lives, he will be greatly missed. You will be in our hearts forever.  Love, Tammy, Tim and Katie Williams

We are so heartbroken to hear of Paul's passing.  He was a wonderful man.  Kevin knew Paul much longer than myself, but from the time I met him you could tell that he was a kind and sincere person.  We enjoyed seeing him and we fell in love with his family immediately.  How blessed this family is.  

Kate, 

You are a strong wife and mother.  You, John, and David have all of our support and love.  Please know that we are here for you.

With love,

Kevin, Laura, and Kylie Murphy

Peggy and Ernie O'Dea

So very sorry to hear about Paul. Blessings to the family.

I still can't believe this news. Paul was larger than life and always excited to be in the moment. Whether we were playing Warrior football or catching-up at a local Binghamton watering hole when we were both on leave, Paul was always quick with a joke or just happy to be hanging with friends. I am truly sorry to all of Paul's family for this loss. A great guy left us too soon.

May your soul rest in eternal peace. You will be missed by many and will always remain treasured in our heart. Heartfelt sympathy and prayers to Kate, your beautiful boys and parents.  Heaven's happiness, love & peace to you. Love you Paul. Ron&Lyn Randall

Paul, you made us smile even in the saddest of times. You will be greatly missed. We love you and pray for your peaceful rest.

Love, 
Joe, Francine, Galen, Jack, Ailish and Luke
