Whenever I came home from Kansas City I usually called Paul to talk to him or else I saw him in church - I will miss him. He was a joy to talk to.

MY deepest sympathy to Paul's family. I have enjoyed knowing Paul through our conversations while he was at the Wayne County Nursing Home.He especially loved talking about his family. He was a very nice man liked by many. We will miss him.
