Cops say speed clearly played a major factor in the accident, but an exact cause has not been determined yet. Paul was 40 years old. He leaves behind a 15-year-old daughter named Meadow.
Paul’s rep said he was in Santa Clarita for a car show — organized by Paul and his charitable organization Reach Out Worldwide — to support the Philippines typhoon relief effort.

I am absolutely speechless. Heaven has gained a new Angel.

R.I.P.
