To the Canfields:
I'm very sorry for your loss and apologize that I can't be there with you during this time. Uncle Paul will also be remembered and I'll never forget playing baseball and just hanging out with him while we were growing up. XoXo

Realizing the great pain you are suffering I want you to know that I am praying for you daily. I pray God will help you through this very devastating time.
Sincerely yours, Margaret Welsch
