Mary and all the family... my prayers are with you. I am so glad I got to visit with Paul when he was in the hospital... You guys were one of the first if not first marriage I performed when I arrived here in 1975... the years go so quickly. May the Lord bless you and keep you until we are all together again.

Uncle Paul,
We Love you and miss you so much. It is still not real that you are not here. You have been such a huge part of our life in so many ways, I can't even begin to count the many wonderful things that you have done, there are too many. And they are all good. You are all good. I will treasure all of our wonderful memories dear to my heart forever. Thank you for being Papa to Shelby, she loved you so much. We all do. I am proud to have had you as my awesome Uncle. You taught us the value of family and stood by it. That is just one of the many things. Plus, you tried to teach me how to hunt, sorry I scared them away, but I do love the many times we sat on the hill waiting for them. Those times in the hills is where you were at your best. Until we meet again, you enjoy being at your best right now. I am in faith that you are out of pain and amongst those who you love and who love you. We love you so much Uncle Paul. You are the best. With all of our love to you.

Uncle Paul- We had our crying session the last time you were in the hospital. I have so many memories that I will treasure. Now, you don't have to worry about auntie Mary or I trying to steal your ice cream. When I go to Alaska in July I will make sure I catch a nice big King for you! I love you and miss you!!!!
