Paul Sherwin is without a doubt the greatest man I have ever known. I truly miss him. I am heart broken I am not there to help and support the love of his life,(Donna).
Paul was the most loving, kind and generous man anyone could ever meet. My heart goes out to his family,(Paul's greatest treasure). Hunting, riding four wheelers, motorcycle riding and taking care of his land all took second place to his family. Hunting with Paul was an honor as it was more about comradery than killing animals.
Donna said she has to belive he's in a better place, but I can't imagine anywhere better than the Sherwin's home.
I love you all!
