Dalee so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. I just heard about it and did not believe it so I had to check for myself. Paul was a good friend and great teacher. I will miss him greatly.

To Gene, Garry and Jody,
Sorry to learn of your fathers death here on this earth but what a blessing to know that he is home with our dear Lord. He will be greatly missed.
I had went by on mothers day to see that their was a dumpster so I came home to see if one of your parents had past away.
I had stopped a few times to visit with them while I was in the area.
God Bless you all... Judy Heston(neighbor)
I live in Bellville, Ohio now.

II Corinthians 5: 7-8:
"For we walk by faith, not by sight:
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." Praising the Lord that Uncle Paul is at home with his Savior. How very blessed I was to know this precious man my entire life. A true testimony for the Gospel of Salvation. Praying for my Aunt DaLee and cousins Gene, Garry, and Jody and their families.

This earth has lost one of the greatest Christian men it's ever known. Paul's life was an example of honesty, morality, courage, love, hope, and faith. He let the light of the Lord shine in all he did. Paul claimed my family as part of his and my son is honored to share his birthday. Our hearts are broken, but our loved one we know is peacefully with his Savior.

I remember Paul from my days as an apprentice attending night classes where Paul was our instructor. He was always so helpful and I used to visit him at Madison whenever I got a chance after moving away. A fine man and Christ follower as I have ever met. Gene and Garry and family please accept my sincere condolences. He is resting in the arms of his savior.
