I sent a message earlier today but I guess it didn't get posted. It was simple. If I live to be 100, every time I hear the name 'Paul' I will think 'Uncle Paul.' He was a good man of quiet dignity. The kind of man boys like me wanted to grow up to be. I'm afraid I didn't quite measure up.
I will lovingly cherish memories of Uncle Paul always.
Alas, because of my own medical issues (I had a cancerous kidney removed earlier this year), I will not be able to attend the funeral. But...

Paul Hendrick was a beloved uncle, a brother of my late father, William Hendrick, also of Roanoke. Paul was a quiet, caring man, and didn't mind showing it. He will be missed. I'm not a distant relative (except in distance, Atlanta) and grieve that this member of the famed Greatest Generation has left us.

Very upsetting. I knew and worked with Paul for many years at Woodys. He taught me more than just about auto parts. Always quick with a funny line or joke..he made most everyone, young and old enjoy being around him. I missed him when he retired from Woodys years ago...i'll really miss him now. To Ann...and all the family..i'll be thinking of you (and Paul) always.
