PJ was my very first boss at the insurance company. He was great to work for and with. Had a lot of laughs over the years.

So sorry to read of his passing.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends. Please find comfort in the words found at Isaiah 61:1,2.
