Paul was born on May 4, 1932 in Nanty Glo, PA. He was one of 13 children born to Emery and Helen Philip, who immigrated to the United States from Slovakia. Paul was a staff sergeant in the United States Air Force for four years in the 1950’s. He was trained as a navigator, and was a Korean War veteran. He studied electrical engineering, and was employed at the Raytheon Company until his retirement in 1993. He had many accomplishments in his 30-year career, but he considered his five children his greatest success.
