Wendy,
I can’t tell you what an awful shock it was to learn that Paul passed. In all the years I knew Paul he was so robust and active that the thought of him dying at 65 is hard to take. Though we have not stayed in touch for the last several years I think about you two often.

Wendy & Ryan, I can't help but to cry. Even though he was my cousin we had a brother sister relationship and sharing the same birthday I believe gave us an even closer tie. I will never celebrate my birthday quite the same. I am so happy we got the oportunity to be together in West Yellowstone in October. My heart is heavy as I look at his photo and remeber...Know our thoughts and prayers of strenght are with you and are a phone call away if you need us. All Our Love Margie and Jim

Wendy,
Doug and I had no idea. We are so sorry. Paul was such a wonderful person. I remember him helping us with building our home. He was such a generous person. We have missed seeing you both. I know that he'll be waiting and watching over you and Ryan. I have no doubt.
