Elaine and Barbara--I am so very sorry to read of Paul's untimely death. I had no idea he was even ill but I did note Hospice's involvement. We Kelly girls had very fond memories of our oh-so-handsome cousin (Paul) and we used to talk--as young teen-agers--that Paul had moviestar good looks. From reading his obituary, it would appear he had lots of interests and talents.

Again, I offer my condolences to you both.

Love, Colleen (Kelly) Mellor
PS We are in Asheville, NC, now and will not be returning to RI until Nov. 10, otherwise we would be at the memorial services. Our prayers are with you and your families.

Elaine, we were shocked to read about Paul. He was taken away from you much to soon. We have many fond memories of the good times we had together over the years. May those memories and the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. God Bless you and your family during this difficult time.
