Read MoreIt has been 11 years since Paul R. Tibbs left this earth and I think of him often. It was a privilege to know Paul, he was always in good spirits, so helpful and kind.

I feel very blessed to have known him, there will never be another Paul R. Tibbs

Grandpa Tibbs was a wonderful man. It's been 7 years since he died, but I remember it vividly seeing him dying. He was my Peeps and I was his Peeps, and no one will ever be called that.

In this day of computers and everything electronic, it's always such a joy to know there were, and are, people who can share their gifts of hands on talents, as a living, with the rest of us. And surely, a Veteran, with a Purple Heart, had a heart of gold to match. Deepest sympathy to you all, and God bless.
