Cheryl said she last spoke to her son on the morning of his death.
“We were having this good conversation, and he’d forgotten about an event he had,” Cheryl said at the time. “He got a text and said, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m supposed to be somewhere!'”

Cheryl added the family has a special tradition for Paul’s birthday in which they go down to Huntington Beach, California — one of his favorite surfing spots — and throw sunflowers into the ocean and tell their favorite memory of their beloved son and brother.
“I’ve gotten letters from people all over the world who said he made a difference in their lives,” Cheryl said. “That is such a blessing. He’s never forgotten.”
