Thank you Cynthia for posting this on FB, I wouldn't have remembered to look online for it.
Thank you to everyone for the kind words and prayers. I am still in shock too. I can't believe this has really happened. I miss him so much and I don't know who is going to do everything that he used to do for me... I was so spoiled. I'm hoping that time will make things easier.
I wish you were here Paul... Hopefully I make you proud on Thursday... I love you!

Linda, Tiffany, Shawn, Kylie & Kiera,
There are no words that can even begin to express how very sad I am for the loss of Paul and for all the pain and sorrow you are experiencing. Paul was a very special person and he will be missed by all who knew him. My faith tells me that he is in a better place, and although you cannot see him, he will be with you always. Be comforted by the memory of every precious moment you spent together. Please know you are and will continue to be in our prayers. We love you very much!
