Paul Temple, skilled attorney, treasured colleague, and dear friend, died unexpectedly on August 23, 2021. His considerable professional gifts were a boon to his clients, and a blessing to those he mentored. We here at AlphaTech already miss his ready smile, his sardonic wit, and steady confidence as we struggle to accept life without Paul.<\/p>\n
We are fortunate that Paul made such an impact on all of us, and left us so many fond memories to serve as a balm during this time. He was sincerely proud of our accomplishments together, and wanted the world (or at least everyone on State Street in Madison) to know what we achieved. So much so, he surprised us all by renting out the marquee at The Orpheum Theater to celebrate AlphaTech\u2019s 10th<\/sup> anniversary. Paul was also fiercely loyal both to his friends and to every cause he believed in. His loyalty was steadfast, even when it was unwise, like the time that Paul unfortunately, albeit proudly, wore a Chicago Cubs jersey, hat, and Cubs shorts (somehow!) to a Brewers game. Paul was also a loving father and husband. We readily recall the sheer joy on Paul\u2019s face after his son was born.\u00a0 We also admired how he fulfilled a life-long dream of obtaining his pilot\u2019s license and occasionally took some of our more adventurous team members on private flights.\u00a0 We will forever miss the passion that he displayed for life and as an advocate and mentor for the companies with whom he worked as an attorney.<\/p>\n We are lucky\u00a0to have had Paul in our lives, to know him, and to be known by him. His absence is a gap that cannot be filled. We are grateful to his wife, Molly, and his son, Jack, for letting him share his days with us. Our deepest sympathies to his parents, Steve and Mary Ann, to Molly\u2019s parents, Tom and Diane, and to Molly\u2019s sister, Allie.<\/p>\n We certainly don\u2019t have a monopoly on Paul stories. We would appreciate your sharing of any anecdotes, memorable experiences, and photos of Paul at PTempleMemorial@gmail.com<\/a>.\u00a0 From the submissions, we plan to put together a memory book to share with Jack and Molly.<\/p>\n In lieu of flowers or gifts, if you would like to share your thoughts directly to the family, Molly has requested that you send messages to rememberingpaultemple@gmail.com<\/a>, or if you would like to make a donation in Paul\u2019s honor, feel free to do so for one of the organizations listed in Paul\u2019s obituary (https:\/\/www.ryanfuneralservice.com\/obituary\/Paul-Temple<\/a>).<\/p>\n Paul\u2019s family is planning a memorial service in Madison, sometime in late September. There will be some ability to participate remotely in the service.\u00a0 We will post more details when they become available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Paul Temple, skilled attorney, treasured AlphaTech colleague, and dear friend, died unexpectedly on August 23, 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1651,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[223],"class_list":["post-1218","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-paul-temple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1218"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1218\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1653,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1218\/revisions\/1653"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1651"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alphatechcounsel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
