Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. I will always remember Uncle Paul's great smile and laugh. He was generous also---I always had such good times with him at Mohegan Sun--especially when he took me and Carrie for our first limo ride from the hotel over to the casino. He always made sure that we had an extra good time while there. He will be missed.

Dear Richardson Family,

We were so sorry to hear about your loss.

We loved Paul and admired his ability to both lighten up and open up. He never hesitated in showing people how happy he was to meet, know, and love them. He was quick to smile and open up his arms and his heart. And of course, he always made sure he shared a laugh.

He was, and had every right to be, proud of his family.

God bless.

I just wanted Paul's family to know how sorry I am and my mother is to hear of Paul's death. We haven't seen Paul in many years now but in the 40's and 50's we were neighbors in Denmark. Paul and my brother David and I used to play together by the hour. Maybe Paul and my brother David are united once again now. Paul and his brothers used to walk me to school when I first began school. The family that is left in Maine will probably remember the Duplessis family when we used to live beside of them. Some of the older sisters were in school at the same time as my mother. Again I am so sorry.

Cherish each other more every day.
Love to you,
