Not sure what to say?

I grew up in highpoint in the late 60's and 70's. Paul was a great friend to my dad and had done alot to help our family and others. I remember him marrying my parents. Paul and his wife were very accepting of others no matter their walk in life. I last saw Paul in late 90's to let him know that I was in graduate school and the death of my father Bob Heath. Ever grateful for help, support and acceptance you and mrs. pruitt have given. I found out recently of his passing of a great man.

Death is never easy to cope with, may you fine comfort in God's word at Isaiah 57:18

I am sorry for your loss. Mr. Pruitt is missed. May the God of peace.(2Thess. 3:16) be with your family as you remember your loved
one today and every day. Please take care.

Our deepest condolences on the loss of such a wonderful man, husband, father, and advocate for so many. Our hearts are comforted by the love, justice, and compassion Paul gave to this world, and the amazing family who love him dearly. He was a beacon of hope and wisdom for us all.
Paul officiated our wedding ceremony 20 years ago, and throughout our marriage, we often remember his words and a wonderful little song that he and dear Mary Margaret sang to us. We are so thankful for their...

I first met Paul Pruitt when I was 5 years old. That was 70 years ago in Anacortes. He was a young pastor of the local Congregational Church. I had the best attendance in Sunday School and won a small basket ball as the reward. I was lying on the couch after Christmas recuperating from Chicken Pox when Paul showed up to deliver my reward.

In later years Paul served in Everett and when my Dad died when I was 19. Paul officiated at the funeral. My Dad was not a church goer,...

We have lost a tireless advocate for peace and justice. A more faithful, trusted and spirit filled public and Christian leader would be hard to find. Dedicated to inclusivity and equality, especially in healthcare, he will be remembered for his service to the community and to all of us who will miss him. My love to Mary Margaret and the Pruitt family in this time of remembering Paul's life of goodness and service.

I have known Paul and Mary Margaret as elders and leaders of Western Washington Fellowship of Reconciliation, the very best of elders and leaders, wisely kind and thoughtful and immensely committed and supportive.

I always thought that Paul was a darling man, and that he and Mary Margaret were a beautiful couple. It was a joy some years back to see their three-generational family (then) so active at Seabeck. We were all the better for their being there.

Wishing long life to...

Paul was an inspiration to me and was the catalyst for my becoming active in WWFOR. For that, and so very many other reasons, I am grateful to have known him, to have learned from him, to have shared humor with him and to have witnessed his impossibly constant good humor.

In loving memory of a wonderful person.
