Marlene, Jennifer and Angie,
My life has been enriched having you in it. We will forever miss Paul and there will always be an empty spot at our table, but we have each other to laugh and cry with over the many years we were blessed with Paul. You are my family and I love you all.

Mark and I were very sad to hear about Paul. He kept us busy out in our yard trying to keep up with how beautiful he always kept yours. He was always busy and we admired his work ethic. He will be missed. If you need anything at all, please let us know. You are always welcome at our home if you would like to stop by.

Marlene and Family, we are very sorry for your loss. . . Paul was a great neighbor. We would always see him working in the yard or on his cars. He seemed to really take pride in those things. He was a really nice guy and we will miss seeing him around the neighborhood.

I remember spending a lot of time with Paul when I came to Seattle for a summer. He let me roll all of the pennies in the penny jar and keep the money;) He was a fun uncle and I wish I would have had the chance to visit more often. I am thinking of all of you....

To all: I'm sorry to hear of Paul's passing. I spent a number of years working for Paul at Fraser Boiler. He was a good man to work for and though I have not spoken to him a number of years, he was always part of the conversation when talking about boiler work. I'll miss him. David Barnhart Sr.

Marlene, Jennifer, and Angie, I am very sorry for your loss. I only made it to Seattle a couple of times, but Paul opened his home to me and I enjoyed his company. He whipped my butt on the golf course...just a real good, down-to-Earth man, who was taken way too soon. I'm glad I got to know him.

Hey Paul,
Thanks for letting me crash at your house during all my trips up to visit in Seattle. I know listening to Marlene & I cackling at our own dumb jokes got to be old but you never minded. We will miss you and am deeply sorry you didn't make it down to visit us in Charleston, SC but know you will be watching closely. We love you!
