September 2009 wasn't a very good month for us. It's always hard when you lose someone you care so much about. Love hurts.

Our deepest sympathy to Mary, David, Ann Marie and Barry. "Give rest eternal, in blessed falling asleep, O Lord to the soul of thy Servant Paul and make his memory to be eternal." He will be missed by everyone who knew and loved him.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted (Matthew 5:4). I extend my deepest condolences to all family and friends of Paul. No one ever can take away the gift and the power of the relationships we all have shared with his kind and gentle nature. "With the Saints give rest, Oh Lord, to the soul of Your servant Paul, where sickness, sorrow, and sighing are no more, but life everlasting!" MEMORY ETERNAL...

Mary and David,
I am so sorry for your loss. May the memories you have of him bring you some comfort in this time of grief. I can't help but think he and my dad are fishing or stocking streams in heaven.
Forever may he rest in peace.

Earthly life is but a fleeting nuisance, delaying our entrance into the Kingdom of God. For those left, sadness and sorrow may fill their days ...but for those who truely believe, their hearts will be at peace.

Paul was always more than a brother-in-law to me. After marrying his sister, he accepted me instantly as family, as did Mary and David. I regret having only known him for 5 short years. Everyone I talk to has only good things to say about him. I wish I had more time to get to know him and enjoy his company. Memory Eternal.

Paul was a wonderful husband, father, son, brother, and cousin. It is so sad that Paul was called to be with the Lord while still young enough to enjoy activities with Ann Marie and his love for the outdoors. This is a tragic loss for our family.
