I grew up next to the huge and loving Baca family and what an amazing time we had getting to know them.

Paul was much older than I but, had a wisdom beyond his years and always carried himself so well. Very kind and polite.

My regrets to the Baca family from the entire Cox family on Todd Lane!!

Blessings,

I remember the days that Paul, Eddie Rivers and I went fishing many time from the Pismo Pier to the Lagoon in Oceano to Lake lopez He will surely be missing. My prayers are with his family.

I grew up just up the street from the great Baca family . One day one of the girls and I used a ladder to climb up the outside of the house to get in an upstairs window. The boys wouldn't let us in. I fell off the ladder onto a piece of glass and cut my hand . He picked me up and carried me home and made up a story to tell my mom so neither one of us got in trouble. Ha ha. He was a great guy with a special outlook on life.

I am so surprised to see that Paul died. I was researching large families and I thought of the Baca family and wondered where he was. I am now amazed that I won't see him again. Paul a very happy person. I took it forgranted. All the way through school. I met his gorgeous sisters later on. We all lived in this time of so many kids in our classes but looking back it was a time of simplicity. He took it simply for what it was, I was amazed at a big family. I was hoping he would beat the tv family who had 21 kids
I am so sorry not to meet him again walking around smiling. Maybe he was an angel.
