Not sure what to say?

Praying for peace and healing to the family and especially his daughter Abigail during this difficult time. May everyone remember the good times with Paul and his joy of telling stories while sharing a great meal. My last memory was speaking with Uncle Paul about getting together with my children and Abigail to have a meal at his place.

To my little brother there are not enough words to let you know how much you meant to our family. You always wanted to be the life of our family's gatherings by all the stories you told and the laughter you brought to us. I will cherish those memories forever. Always in my Heart ❤ Love you Forever

Paul,
I remember the day you were born and Mom asked us to pick a name for you, I picked the name Michael since we didn't have any family members with that name. When Mom called the following morning to tell us your name I was surprised and excited when she said it was Paul Michael.

Now after all these years of losing you have broken my heart; you were more than a brother to me; you were like my son since I helped raise you at 3 months old.

I will miss you dearly...

So sorry for your loss.

Praying for peace and comfort for our daughter Abigail as she tries to navigate life without you. I will always remember when you first met my mom and cooked steak fajitas at her place. There was never a dull moment with you, you were always the life of the party. Thank You for being a wonderful Father to Abigail. I pray that you will rest in paradise and watch over all of us. Amen!

Sending our thoughts and prayers for our family during this difficult time, especially to Abigail. We will always remember how Uncle Paul Michael could start a conversation with anyone and always made everyone laugh. May God welcome him with open arms and he be reunited with our other loved ones who have also passed. Amen!
