Very sad to hear. Mr Horn was one of the hardest working, most genuine people I've known. Hopefully we can eat cheese puffs, ice cream and watch Heehaw again some day. Rest in peace.

We want to offer our condolences and prayers to the Horn family for their loss and for the healing in the coming days. Paul will be missed and the good earth will be a lesser place with his absence but heaven will be blessed with his presence. May the good Lord bless you all.

So sorry to learn about Paul's passing he was such a joy to speak to every Sunday when we would arrive at NBC for church. He will be sadly missed at church and his wonderful ice cream. Prayers as you walk through this journey of loss and grief of your loved one. Blessings, Charlie and Ellen Franklin
