Not sure what to say?

I've been servicing Paul's lawn for the last 2 years. He was such a nice person, very friendly, and I've only had great interactions with him. Probably one of my favorite customers I've ever had. I just found about his passing today, from his next door neighbor.

Life is short, make sure you live it to the fullest while you're still here.

He told me multiple times he didn't have a green thumb, So I was glad to help him. This is really unfortunate news, I really enjoyed...

Thunder buddies 4 ever

My thunder buddy, my friend, words cannot express how much I am going to miss you. You had the patience of a saint, kindness and compassion for all. Profound empathy and care for those hurting. I still cannot believe I am writing this and you’re not here. You and I would talk about everything and nothing. You saved my life when depression tried to take over. You were my support my encourager my best friend. You believed that one day I would be a doctor. You were so happy when I became an NP....

Thunder buddies 4 life!

Words truly cannot express how much Paul meant to me. I was blessed to have him as a best friend. He truly was amazing! He was the kindest person in the whole world. At my darkest times he was there to lift me up and he saved me. We had some of the best times as roommates. We always laughed about our townhouse even after we had moved out. I am going to forever miss my friend. I am going to miss the laughs, the dj sessions and the many conversations about hockey. I love you 3000 Paul!

May you rest in peace Paul you were so loved and cared about by everyone. You also loved and cared about everyone even before yourself and you truly were an amazing person no one can replace. I'm so happy we met and stayed friends as long as well did. You became a brother to me and that will never change. I love you Paul and I will forever miss you.
