Uncle Paul was a good man and he is gone too soon. I'm lucky he shared so much of his time and interests with me. He taught me how to drive a stick shift in one of his Porsches. He took me to my first opera, and to opening night at the Met. Patrick and him took me on trips around the world, sharing memories that we'll have forever. That's how Paul was, he always wanted to share what he had with those he cared about. I love you Paul. Thank you for all the influence you have had on my life and for helping raise me to be who I am today. I love you Patrick.

What an amazing man Paul was. So kind and smart and honest. He left the world a better place by gracing it with his presence. Patrick and Paul had a love to be envious of. See you on the other side my friend....

To the Legvold Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
