We sadly offer our condolences to Ginny and all of Paul's children we also are saddened by this news. Paul was a someone whom I knew was listening and would offer a pleasant reply whenever we met.

We also offer our condolences to your extended family especially Bill & Betty Jo as they also grieve this very sad loss. My belief is that Paul is in a special place as we have been assured in scripture: Matthew 11:28 "Come to me and I will give you rest"... may Paul rest in the love of the Lord and may you also find peace.
