What wonderful soul. Paul loved Jesus so much! He and Ford McDaniels are now both rejoycing with the Angels. I do believe he had brought so many people to trust in Jesus. I will miss seeing Paul with his constant companions. He loved his Sugar so much.

I'm truly sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences. As you remember your beloved Paul, as God heals your broken hearts (Psalm 147:3), may your treasured memories bring you peace, comfort, and strength to endure.

What a faithful servant of Jesus! Met Paul at Bible study and he was so fervent for Christ. Should be a lesson to us all the life he lived for Christ. A very kind and giving soul and now enjoying the fruits of his labor.
Well done Paul! We all hope to see you one day soon! My sympathies to his family for the sudden loss of a great man. I thank God I knew Paul!

I met Paul at church. We were both attendees of Sunday night bible study led by Pastor Jeff Scheffee. Paul brought wisdom and wit to our bible study group. He was a happy person with a great sense of humor. I will miss seeing his smiling face and friendly demeanor.

Paul was a very special person to all that he came in contact with! Most of us made his acquaintance through his business of furniture refinishing. I must say that he was 2nd to none in the business. I can only imagine how many people he made smile through his talents. Very nicely done my friend. The Lord has come to take you Home!

So sorry to read of Paul's passing. He was a great neighbor and always very kind. I last saw him in May of last year at our Mom's service and was reminiscing about him pulling us on a toboggan down the Range Line road behind his VW Beetle when we were kids. He will be missed.
