Paul Michael Gise, (also know as "Mike") 58, lived in Apopka, Florida and passed away on Monday November 25, 2019. He was born on September 16, 1961 in Melbourne, Florida to parents Robert Gise and Sandra Hildebrand.

He was a great father to his daughter and his grandchildren. He committed many years of his life to the road safety and barricade business with his brother. He had an undeniable passion for the stock market and studied it daily, always staying up-to-date with the upcoming mergers and companies that were projected to soar. He tried to teach us all the in's and out's of day trading, some of us picked up more than others.

On Sunday mornings, he enjoyed getting out to the lake early to go fishing with his brother. Of course, every fish caught counted toward their competition: most fish caught, biggest fish caught and most edible fish caught. He loved the beach, seafood, and was fierce competitor at the pool tables.

He offered each person he met a level of acceptance that few people are willing or capable of giving. He was intellectual and a great story teller. He knew how to talk to people, and help them see things from his point of view without offending anyone. He brought joy to the people who were lucky enough to spend some time with him.

He lived his life to the fullest, marching to the beat of his own drum and he also knew his way around a dance floor. He was and will always be a true ROCK STAR.

He is stronger than anyone else I have ever known and he put up one HELL OF A FIGHT in the end.

We will forever remember his sense of humor, unbridled acceptance and commitment to his family.

Left to cherish his memory are his mother, Sandra Wallace; daughter, Phallin Smith; brother and best friend, Robert Gise; sister, Shelly Simon; and 3 grandchildren, Aaliyah Smith, Angelique Smith and D'Andre Smith Jr. Plus all the other family and friends that share in his memory.
