Dear Joy and family,
We have just learned of the passing of Paul into glory. We want to express our deepest sympathy and to covenant to pray for you in the difficult days ahead. Paul always looked so young...we were surprised to hear that he was our age! May God give you the grace that he promises, we know that He is always faithful. We have fond memories of the three short years here in Goshen, NY where he began his career in glorifying God through Christian education. Our love and...

Dear Joy, Paul, and Lael,

I want to convey our deepest sympathy. I know this has been a long journey for all of you and you will continue to be in our prayers.

I am so thankful to have taught at Westminster during the years that Paul was there. He was so understanding, kind, and made coming to school a rich and enjoyable experience.

My favorite second grade experiences pretty much revolved around our school-wide presentation, called "Westminster on Parade"....

We want to extend our sincere sympathy to Mrs Witte, children, and grand children.
May God provide comfort to you and your family in your loss.

Dear Joy and Family,
We will hold the memories of Paul's many smiles,engaging conversations,calming ways, and so much more. May our Father who Paul loved and served remain close to each of you until we meet again in glory.

Dear Joy and Family,
It has been many years since I had the pleasure of working with Paul. I have such fond memories of my first two years of teaching at Westminster Christian School in Miami with Paul as principal. I can still see him walking down the sidewalks of the school, smiling as he went. He was particularly helpful with William, a student of mine who today would I am certain be in a gifted/talented class. William frequently needed a break from the regular routine and Paul,...

Paul was a dear friend of mine serving on the MANS Board of Directors for six years. Often times we wondered about how fortunate we were to be blessed to serve the many faith based Christian schools in Michigan. I know the impact that Paul had on me as we shared our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. He will be missed for a little while. But in a little while we shall see him as we shall see our Lord face to face. Nothing shall separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Special...

Joy and family,
My prayers will be with you in the days ahead. Just got off the phone with Irv and Joan Zylstra and talked about some of our memories from Florida and after. Know that we will miss Paul and will remember you before our Father. Your husband/Dad/grandpa was a great friend who loved Jesus and sought to serve Him faithfully.

Uncle Paul will never be forgotten in our hearts or in our lives. We remember how his cheery attitude and humor would brighten any family gathering. We loved hearing the stories of him and mom as kids and treasure the memories of the times we shared as family in Florida and New Jersey. We will never forget his generous heart, his servant attitude, and his authentic Christian life and example. We loved Uncle Paul very much and will miss him dearly.
