I first met and stayed with Paul in 1999 when I was researching my first book in which he was one of the subjects.

I went to various night fighter reunions with him and enjoyed numerous trips to his home with my wife and daughter over the last 15 years. A real gentleman who endured 5 long, hard years as a prisoner of the Soviets.

He was a close friend who will be sorely missed by all that had the pleasure of knowing him. Our condolences go to Gerda, his wife of almost 70 years.

David Williams was kind enough to introduce me to Paul Zorner at his home in Germany on a couple of occasions.

He was always very kind and generous with his time. I know that his health was on the decline for several years. I am glad that he is finally at peace.

I will treasure the visits that Dave and I had with this great man.
