A Note from Paul and His Family
First, our heartfelt “THANKS” go out to all who have shared their visits, prayers, and presence with Paul and us in these difficult last few weeks since Paul became so ill. During this time Paul’s main desire was to feel safe and loved. Thanks for helping us satisfy his request. Please know that Paul treasured those moments, with all the laughs and memories they evoked.
The last gift we (Paul included) received was the first hand knowledge that he touched so many people so deeply during his life. Paul’s love and commitment for family, his loyalty to friends (his many Bro’s), his generosity, and his fun loving spirit were recognized by everyone. His philosophy on life was black and white, and could be summarized in a few of his favorite expressions: carpe diem!; you can sleep when your dead (said when others wanted to quit the party); clothes don’t make the man; you can’t take it with you; and, Party on! Consider these lessons learned.
Paul, we will miss you dearly, but always with laughter and smiles on our faces.
Mission accomplished. Party on Bro!
Chris, Jacq, Tricia, Mike, Mom
