Dorir, My love and prayes to you and your family. Paul is right where he wants to be just now. I can just hear him asking one of his famous questions! I'm sure he's having a ball. You will miss him so much, but he is in a far better place now. I would have phoned you but didn't have your no. Take care. Love, DeLorise

Though we were unable to visit often, Paul was a wonderful father-in-law and always treated me with kindness, good humor and respect. When I think of Paul, I am reminded of his great smile and loving hugs. I appreciated his love for my children - even my older son, Chris, who was his step-grandson.

My prayers go out to Doris and the family -- may the Lord fill your hearts and minds with His peace that passes all understanding, hope and joy at our expected reunion in eternity and gentle memories of the times we spent with Paul in this life.

Love in Christ --

Paul hired me as a young woman in the Sales Department at American Can Company. Throughout the years I have developed such appreciation for the great group of people with whom I worked. It was under his leadership in both hiring practices and management style that we were likely one of the nicest, most efficient group of office workers that has ever existed. His example served us all well and we were privileged to have had the opportunity to work with him.

My condolences to his family.

It's been a million years but, I still remember the times at your home. After school for Bluebirds, spending the night, vacation bible school. The way Mr. Herrett called me "Salty"..always the smile. I am very sorry for your loss, He was a kind man.

Dear Doris,
We were sad to hear about Paul's passing, we have fond memories from the time he worked at Molbak's. We are out of town and therefore will not be able to attend the service.
Our best wishes to you and your family,
Laina and Egon
