Dear Lyn and family, we are so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. The worst part of getting older is losing our family and friends way too soon. Seems we go to more funerals than weddings these days. Please know how fond we were of Paul. Always such a happy go lucky guy. Here's hoping outstretched hands and loving hearts gently carry you through this difficult time. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless. Shad & Steve
I was very sorry to hear of Paul’s passing. I knew Paul from a very early age. We were in grade school together, went to the same church, and were in the church choir together. Paul was in our Scout Troop, and we attended Scout Camps together. My profile has a picture of Paul with the rest of the Scouts who went on a camping trip to Wyoming when we were in High School. It is with sadness that I look at that photo, because of the eight classmates pictured, three have left us.
When I think of Paul, the one overarching memory I have of him is that he was always happy. I cannot think of an interaction with him in which he was angry or upset. I only remember him as being friendly and kind; I always see him with a smile on his face. I can truly say that he had a positive influence on me, and that my life is richer for having known him. The world is a better place for having had Paul in it. My heart and prayers go out to his family.
