I read this "Guest Book" with a heavy heart, but it also shows me something that I know we all treasure which is that something no one can take away.

"The Project Bond" which we all know Paul was very proud of. Know that you are in all of our thoughts and prayers. My love to lil' Billy.

When somebody dies, a cloud turns into an angel, and flies up to tell God to put another flower on a pillow. A bird gives the message back to the world, and sings a silent prayer that makes the rain cry. People disappear, but they never really go away.

The spirits up there put the sun to bed, wake up grass, and spin the earth in dizzy circles. Sometimes you can see them dancing in a cloud during the daytime, when they're supposed to be sleeping. They paint the rain bows and also the sunsets and make waves splash and tug at the tide.

They toss shooting stars and listen to wishes. And when they sing wind songs, they whisper to us, don't

miss me too much. The view is nice and I'm doing just fine.



I am very sorry for your loss.

We are very sorry to hear the passing of Paul. Mrs. W. growing up I remember Paul had such great respect for you and I think that is what I will remember most about him, his quiet and gentlemanly ways. It always impressed me how he would stop playing basketball just to help you with the groceries. My prayers are with you all. Sincerely, Barbara Horigan
