Robert & Susan,
I have purposely left you to your privacy since Paul's passing...At times I wonder what I could say to help the way you feel...I know the hurt must be unmeasurable...Please when you are ready to talk would you give me a message as your ole buddy would like to hear from you...Paul was a great person and he must be remembered that way in the future...I know there are questions and you may never know all the answers but we must all know that Paul is where he wanted to be, with God...He will be cared for in heaven until we can all get there to meet him...

As we think of your family during this difficult time, we offer our deepest condolences. We've found comfort in John 5:28,29 where God promises, "Do not marvel at this...the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." May all in the family find this comforting along with your precious memories.

Paul was a very good friend to my husband Adam Puckett who passed away in September of 2007. I was so thankful that Adam had a friend like Paul that brought much laughter to his life. Paul will be dearly missed.

To Paul's family and Carey,
We were so surprised and saddened by this news. You're in our thoughts and prayers. We only knew Paul through Wendell and Melissa. He was the nicest guy and was always fun to watch the LSU games with. He will be sadly missed by many. Carey, if we can do anything, please let us know. Again, we are so sorry and you're in our thoughts and prayers.
