Paul was a gentleman. Surely to be missed. I had the pleasure of meeting him in the 70s.

What a shock! My favorite movie of his was Slapshot. He sure will be missed!

I was lucky enough to shake the man's hand and say a few words back when Mario Andretti drove for him and Carl Haas. The team was at Elkhart lake and I was wandering around the pits when he strolled over and actually asked me how I was enjoying the qualifying...almost wet myself. Never one to get star struck I almost couldn't speak...I thought meeting Mario was cool but meeting "Butch" himself was the tops! The man will be missed!

David Letterman had a very sincere and special tribute to Paul

I think they are both great men who deserve all the good fortune they have had.

A great actor who could successfully and convincingly play a variety of characters. Never one to go out of his way to draw attention to himself. And a man who, in his later years, chose not to slow down but to press the accelerator down even a bit harder. He chose to remain vibrant, vital and participate in life to the fullest until the very day he absolutely could not any more.
