Paul, crazy, sweet funny Paul! #5! As so many others have said, you will be truly missed! I will always remember you for our chats at Vickery and your bubbling personality but mostly everyday when I look at one of the only good pictures that was taken at my wedding and remembering that it was you that took that picture and I am forever grateful. God has you now and I know He is enjoying having you with Him just like all of your family and friends here on earth did.
Sylvia, I know that you have many hard times ahead of you but I believe that your faith and God will carry you through them as well as all of your family and friends. Know that you are loved and prayed for and that even though you cannot touch Paul , he is still watching over you and wanting you to be okay. He so loved you! We have never been close friends, but I will always be a friend you can call on if if you need to. God bless you now and always!

Paul,#5,KC,Scottie – I knew you by many names, but the one that I prefer is “friend”. Loyal employee and friend of 34 years, golf buddy, ambassador for Vickery, raconteur. You will be missed my friend, but your presence will endure from the many memories that will always exist. I will always hear you saying to me “love ya big guy!” I love you too Paul. I will look forward to seeing you again on the other side. Gone but never forgotten. Vaya con dios mi amigo.

You are in my prayers
Sylvia, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Know that you will be in our prayers, and that God has his plans all laid out for us, but most of all Paul will always be in your heart, and he is making a place for you in Heaven. God bless you
Thank you for all the memories. You will be missed. There was never a time that I spent with him that he never made me smile.
Paul, there must be a great golf course in heaven, with no sand traps or water hazards, and where every stroke is a hole-in-one. I will often think of you there, with Sam Daugherty and Jim Schoolfield, your old golfing buddies. Rest in peace between games.

Of the thousands of rounds of golf played at Tenison Park Golf course in the five years I worked there Paul Renteria was by far the person I most remembered. What a great guy – always a smile on his face. Great stories – Great memories.
