I was so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. He and I used to have long talks whenever I brought my car in to fixed. He was a good man and will be sorely missed.

Dear Della, Christine, Paul, Brian and Dennis and families,



A great sadness came over me after receiving the call about Paul's death. However, I know Paul put up a long, brave battle to survive all his ailments the past several years, and he certainly had a great support system from his devoted family.



Paul and our family go back so many years. He and my dad were such close buddies for so long. I'll never forget hearing Paul's scream over the phone when Terri called to tell him dad passed away, which is almost 11 years ago! I'll never forget Paul's deep sorrow when he found out he missed attending dad's funeral as he didn't know that Jewish funerals are held as soon as possible, and in dad's case, the next day. My heart was breaking for him when he came to visit us after the funeral as he was so devastated.



I have been having strange dreams about dad the past several days, and maybe it's all fitting together now--maybe he was getting ready to greet Paul in heaven, where they'll once again be great friends forever.



May Paul rest in peace.



Love, Margie
