Paul passed away unexpectedly at his home on February 15, 2023. He is survived by his loving wife, Nancy; his brother, Rich (Linda) Casler; his son, Ryan Casler; his inherited children, Jim and Amy Whaley, Kyle and Brittany Whaley, and Becky "Doc" (Steve Guinta) Whaley; and his "adopted" son, Tommy Scott, Jr. He is also survived by his favorite people, his grandchildren: Colton Wahl, Hunter Church and J.D., Caitlin, Paige, Alyvia and Clover Whaley.
Paul loved spending time with his friends, especially if it involved motorcycles, drag and dirt cars, show cars and boats – basically anything with a motor. He always had a story about driving school buses and tractor trailers, racing drag cars or boating on Lake Ontario.
He was proud of his show cars, especially being chosen to participate in the Designer Dozen his first year at Syracuse Nationals with his '83 orange Camaro.
A celebration of his life will be held April 15, 2023, 2-4pm at his home in Kirkville, NY.
