Lonnie Bell
Sorry to hear about the lost of your son Paul. It hurt me to my heart when I read about his death. Paul was always a very caring person. I know that he is now resting in peace with God and Bruce, They both welcome him with open arms and showed him, his new home. The three of them are all up there in heaven having a great time. Hopefully they will hold a room up there for us to.
