Paul R. Lachapelle, Jr.

Another year goes by and it's a decade, we miss Paul very much. A great person that we had the pleasure of knowing and laughing with!!

Dear Michael,
We not only had a contractors relationship with your dad but a good friendship. Your dad always talked about you. He loved you dearly. I was in Westerly this past Wednesday and it always reminds me of your dad. Anytime I travel westerly he is thought of. He was a god man always mad me laugh. I loved him dearly and he is missed dearly as well. He always mentioned how he was trying to teach you the business. I hope you are doing well. He was so proud of you.

Steve and I continue to talk about Paul. Its hard to believe he is gone six years. Paul would stop by our home when he was in the area, an unexpected visit was always welcomed with Paul. He had a natural energy that he possessed and when he walked into a room he would have us pumped up in conversation and laughter. We miss him dearly in friendship as well as doing business with him in construction.
Life is a bit dull without Paul. We lost a ray of sunshine the day we lost Paul. He will...

Dear Michael, Lisa and Family,
We have known Paul since we started our business in 2000. We had the pleasure and headaches of doing business with Paul. When he wanted something, it had to be yesterday, it had to be the best for the least amount of money. He was the one and only contractor that we felt comfortable enough to yell back at. Paul was real and true. When he liked you, he liked you. When he was stressed he would let you know. When he was pissed he would scream, text, swear and...

denise my heart go out to you and your family

When someone special leaves so many happy yesterdays, his love will last through all of your tomorrows. May it bring you comfort to know that nothing can diminish the wonderful ways Paul touched your life. The love and memories you shared will remain with you forever.
Michael, Bertha, Denise, Hannah & Lisa....wishing you comfort and peace at this time of sorrow.

Paul

When I first met Paul in 2001 we had both just moved to town. We came for the same reason basically, to start a new life. We soon developed a family of friends centered around lots of beer and many loud music parties at my house. He became a fixture at the pool. You could hear us for miles. I still wonder why the cops never came.
Paul and I were at times best friends. For a while we became inseparable. We shared a lot that went unspoken. Things that men just don't talk about....
