Pablo served his country in The Armed Forces as an Army Corporal Medic stationed in Korea and was a member of The American Legion Post 69 Pablo retired after 30 years as a postal worker but continued working as a handyman late into his 70's.
Paul and Bea's home was the favorite gathering place for BBQ's and New Years Eve parties throughout the years. He loved and enjoyed spending time with his brothers, sisters and their families. Although he chose Albuquerque as his residence after him and Bea married in 1950, his heart was always tender toward Cuba NM. Paul and Bea managed the Frontier Motel for a bit, just to be back in their hometown. Mom and Dad eventually purchased a small ranch in Cuba, where they spent most weekends. His children loved hearing the story of how they met at a Cuba Dance Hall. Mom shared when she rode a greyhound bus to visit dad in Washington, DC while he was in the service; A lady sitting next to her asked where she was from "I'm from Cuba" she answered "Wow, Cuba?! How did you get here? "Mom answering "On the Bus!" You are truly missed Mom. Dad our patriarch; is now reunited with her.
Paul is survived by his five sons William, Gene, Victor, Ralph and Robert; daughters in law Irene, Barbara, Vicki and Julia; 15 Grandchildren; 22 Great Grandchildren and 5 Great Great grandchildren… and not forgetting his little companion Grizz. Rest In Paradise Dad till we meet again!
