You are gone and this earth will never be the same as I know it. You were the most kind hearted person I have ever known. I love and miss you Paul, watch over us and keep one on ice for me. Just heard today you would refer to me as your nephew and that made me smile and proud at the same time. You will never know how much you ment to so many. God has taken an angel into his kingdom just a bit to soon for me.
