Mr Paulson was the best. He was a hard worker who also loved to socialize and live life to its fullest. He was a role model and made quite an impression on me in my teen years. I saw someone who was successful and always welcomed me into his home as one of Dean's friends. I remember many occasions where he and Mrs Paulsen would have cocktails at sunset and enjoy the view of Mt Rainier. There were times where Dean and I would work our angle... to take the boat out on the lake. There was just one catch... helping Mr Paulson with yard work. He could outwork us young whippersnappers like nobody's business. He could devour and sculpt a hedge with the detail of a fine artist. He also liked to give Dean the business if there was any slacking going on. Those were the days. Mr Paulson, thank you so much for being you - a stand up guy who was not afraid to speak his mind. You will be missed always. All my prayers and thoughts to Mrs Paulson, Dean, Amy, Sydney, Tom, Mike, Lori and other extended family. Jeff Lemon
