Paul E. Chapman

My life hear on earth was a long and happy journey,
I was blessed to spend it with you by my side.
We endured lifes simple pleasures.
The good times and bad.
The happy and the sad.
The sunrises and the sunsets we shared.
The roads we traveled. ...

By no means is it unusual that word of Paul's passing only reached me a few days ago. For, though first cousins (his mother Ellen being my aunt) circumstances only brought us together on a few occasions that were supplemented by but occasional exchange of letters. Yet I feel Paul's passing as strongly as if we'd been close, lifelong neighbors and my heart goes out to Blanche, Kenny and all who knew and loved him.

I add my sincere "Thanks" to Sara Abner for maintaining this Guest Book...
