To The Wallace Family

The love that Paul had for his family is an inspiration to all that knew him. He smiled so deeply whenever he spoke of his family. With his colleagues, Paul always shared an encouraging word, an enlightening thought, or an email that made you laugh until you ached. I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to know such a great man.

Cil and Shaunia, We are very sorry to hear about Paul's leaving our earthly home, we love him soo much as we know you all loved him more because God Blessed you with him as your Husband and Father, a Loving Son and Servant. He is a gift to all of us who knew him and a gift from God to mankind. He wasn't my biological brother but he is my brother too. He is one of God's Angels who will continue to live on.

May God who grants loving kindness be with your family in this time of bereavement. Paul was a kind man who will be deeply missed at the Library of Congress. He took time to courteously greet everyone he encountered and did it with a smile. He will be deeply missed.

To the Wallace Family:
Please accept my condolences and prayers of comfort. (Psalm 91)

What a privilege to have been acquainted with a smart, yet gentle, humble, and encouraging colleague. About 20 years ago, when I first started working as a policy analyst at CRS, I met Paul. He always had the most inspiring words to share with me about working on "the Hill," career advancement and professionalism. When I married and had children, again, he always gave me an encouraging word about balancing career and family. Even as Paul encouraged me professionally, he always shared with me, in glowing terms, his love for his family. In particular, he took great joy in announcing the strides his daughter made in education, career and life choices. Paul will be sorely missed: I find refuge and solace in knowing that his spirit lives on.

To the Wallace Family,

You all have my heartfelt sympathy. I only knew Mr. Wallace for a short period of time. He was the consummate professional and a perfect gentleman. He was always positive and very encouraging. He spoke highly of his family and his church.

What a loss, he was a great guy! May God comfort you in this time.

To The Wallace Family:

May you find comfort in the eternal promise that your loved one has stepped onto the shore of heaven, and has been welcomed by the loving hand of God. "He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds." [Psalms 147:3] Mr. Wallace was a great kind man. Always pleasant and gave encouragement to all. He will be greatly missed throughout the Library of Congress, especially with our Bible Study Group. He would always add to the sessions and ask great questions that would open everyone up for greater enlightment of God's word. He was a great participant. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of bereavement.
