Not sure what to say?

Peggy, I am so sorry to hear of Paul's passing! I am keeping you in my heart and prayers through this difficult time!!!

I extend my sympathies to the Barkus family in the loss of Paul and am praying for all of you. What a great man he was! I was so blessed to know Paul while I worked at Navistar International for many years. He always had a bright smile, cheery attitude and a great sense of humor. He was one of the good guys everyone liked and respected, and he was a friend to many of his co-workers. I could always count on Paul for help as he had so much knowledge.

May Pauls soul Rest In Peace...

Hi Pam. I can't tell you how sorry we were to hear about Paul. We send our love to you and your family.

My deepest heartfelt condolences to the entire family. Paul was often the sunshine at work---sharing many spirited conversations and injecting humor into a situation. He was so very respected for his honesty, knowledge, tenacity, reliableness, etc. A gem with an infectious smile---so sorry for your loss.
