Had the chance to know Paris when he was a student at LDS Business College years ago. He's one of the humblest, most remarkable, inspiring people I've ever known. So glad you're still the great man you've always been, Paris.
Paris, you have always been my favorite "I'm a Mormon" story. So fun to see you again and hear your amazing testimony. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE you.
One of the greatest people I’ve ever met. He was a big reason why I moved from the south to Utah, which played a significant role in my conversion. Thanks Paris!
