Some time has passed, but I have just found out of Mr. Huttons passing and I am deeply saddened. I was one of his students once upon a time in San Vicente. He was always so gracious, witty, and understanding. My condolences to his family and friends affected by his passing.

Paul was my best friend growing up. He was the best man at my wedding. I miss him very much. Paul and I did not stay as close as we would have liked over the years. We started talking again over the last five months. I lost my job in April and my phone was replaced and I lost his number. I went to reach out to Paul tonight and found out he had passed. Paul was the nicest, kindest man I have ever known. The lord must have had a reason for taking him at this time. I know he is in heaven with his mom and dad and looking down on all of us wishing us love. Sliver fish, Paul knows what this means I will alway miss your smile, and positive attitude toward things. Please say hi to my dad a Paul. Love always your friend and brother in spirt.

Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one, Paul. May (1 Thessalonians 4:14) bring you some comfort in knowing that there is a future for the ones we have lost in death. May the God of all comfort strengthen your family during this time of deep sorrow.

I knew Paul when I worked as a teacher in Greenfield. I knew him to be the kindest, warm-hearted, caring man who cared about the success of those he taught. He had a great sense of humor and he was the "gentle giant" that everyone knew him to be. He was a great teacher, a good friend and a fantastic colleague. I will keep Paul, his wife and family in my prayers. May he Rest In Peace and in Paradise.
