Dear Phyllis, Evelinka and James,



Our thoughts are with you as you begin to live life without your husband, son and dad. It will be hard for us to get through the baseball season without thinking of him. Paul was a great dad! Please let us know if there is anything we can do. See you on the fields.

to the family,



Someone once told me that God does certain things for a reason. That what he does is not to be questioned. Though times may be hard right now, things will get better and all you must do is to look back on the good times and not the bad, remember him for who he was not where he is now.

To Mike and Nora,



We are so sorry to hear of your loss. I (J.R.) lost my brother in 1983, and I understand where you are.

We pray that God will give you an abundance of His peace, and will hold you close as you grieve.

Know that you have our love and prayers.
