Paul Brough Obituary

BROUGH Paul W. Paul W. Brough, age 44, born in Detroit, MI, and resided in Acworth, GA, passed away suddenly June 20, 2006.

There are also several nieces, nephews and cousins. Paul was fortunate to live in several places in the United States and always found it easy to make friends. Paul owned and operated Brough's Trenching Company that he was very proud of and that also included numerous associates and clients. His work ethics were outstanding and always tried to instill drive and motivation to all those that he came in contact with him. He was always ready to give that helping hand and reached out to do so. He especially liked car races and was an avid golfer, (having a Hole in One). His two dogs Yoda and ProV gave him endless hours of enjoyment. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Bill and Helen Sebastian of Ohio, Henry and Dorothy Brough-Vanek (Stanley) of Montana and uncle, Paul J. Brough of Nevada. Memorial services will be held Saturday, June 24 at 2 p.m. at Wages Snellville Chapel. The family will receive friends Saturday from 12 until service time at the funeral home.

Just wanted you to know that we will always have Paul in our hearts. From the time he was just a little guy who liked to run his fingers through my hair, to the man he become, he always had one thing going for him, a big heart. He liked helping people. He was proud of his business and rightly so. He worked hard for it to be successful. He always was a hard worker, even as a young kid. I loved talking to him especially in the past couple of months. I will always treasure those calls and hearing, "Hey Susie, can you talk?" I loved being his Aunt and Bill loved being his uncle. We feel the same for Bobby and Shelly. They are the oldest and the first of all our neices and nephews and thus hold that special place in our hearts. We'll miss Paul as we know you all do. Our hearts go out to you all, and we pray for your contiuned strength in dealing with this great loss. We love you all.

dear Bob & Honey,

I want to tell you how sorry we were to hear about Paul, we got to see him and Bob in Billings alot when we stopped to see Butch . We were happy we got to see him that Christmas along with my sister and everybody else. It was the last time for me to ever see my sister again, and it was such a blessing to be there with all of you, that was the first time I had had a Christmas with any of my family in 38 years, it was really nice getting to see Paul and Bob again, after so many years. He will be greatly missed, and you are in my prayers. Love you, Aunt Jeanette and Uncle Ben.

Helen, Bob, Bobby and Shelly: Have just learned that Paul has died and want all of you to know that my prayers and thought go with you in this very difficult time. We have known your family for a long, long time and have cherished all of the memories I have of you all. Paul was a little guy, 11 - 12 maybe in Novi, Michigan, delivering the newspaper and working - getting up early. We knew you all in Tampa - what a good place that was for all of us - our kids all seemed to love being there and so much to do. Later, to Atlanta, too. I saw you all last, I think, at the wedding in Alpharetta, GA - all grown up and such nice people - I always knew that these three children, Bobby, Shelly and Paul - would be so very nice as young adults. Please know that I care all about of you and Kelly, Joel and I will have all of you in our prayers. Will be in touch.

I remember Paul as a loyal friend and someone who would go out of his way to help others. I have great memories of us together whether it was camping or hanging out at the races, playing golf or just talking about life in general. I will always remember my friend Paul and my condolences go out to his family.
