    Author

    Papaw

    A Father, Grandfather, Son, Uncle, Brother, Friend, but to most Paul Story is known as a storyteller. He is a retired businessman entrepreneur who grew up very poor and worked hard from a young age to become very successful and give positive influence to many on his way up. He attributes his success to parents who taught him the importance of commitment to a job well done, family closeness and caring for others and their feelings. Even though his beginning was meager he grew up with a wealth of appreciation for the things that really matter. At the encouragement of his children, he has begun to share some of his special childhood memories with others besides them.
