Dick Paul has been a member of Al Bedoo Shrine for 31 years, participating in the Clown Unit, Makina Motorcycle Brigade, Oriental Band and most recently, the Brass Band and the Provost Guard. Lady Sue is a member of Bath Zabbia Temple, #21 Daughter’s of the Nile, and dances with the Egyptian Dancer’s unit and sings with the Chorus.
Dick and his lady have been married for 41 years, and love spending time with their daughter, Tanya, her husband, Rich and grandkids Joey and Hannah who live in Bismarck, ND and daughter Becki, her husband Tony and grandkids Vince and Gabrielle, who live in MT Pleasant, SC. They have lived in Billings since 1972, with short jaunts out of Billings to Aberdeen, SD, Dick's hometown, for a few years, and Bozeman for one year before moving back to Billings in 2000.
When not occupied with running a self storage business with his wife, Dick is usually in the kitchen cooking up his latest culinary cuisine "Emerill pays big BAM for my secret ingredient recipes". Dick's other passion is driving his restored 1924 Model T Ford, and I am starting the remodel of a 1968 T-Bird convertible, in which someday, he hopes to drive the entire Route 66.
Participating in events that continue to improve the lives of Shriner’s Hospital Children, is a common goal they, as Al Bedoo Shriner’s ALL share. Dick welcomes all Nobles input; to make our organization the best it can be to help Shriner’s children DEFY THE ODDS!
