Sharon,Mark,Mike&Krissy, We cried hearing of Paul's death, but the tears soon gave way to smiles & even laughter as we remembered "Paulie". Thirty-seven years of a wonderful friendship,fond memories too numerous to express,gratitude for having had him in our lives & now serenity in knowing that he is now at peace. We will always miss him.

Aunt Sharon and Family,
Like Bernie & Brian, I too have wonderful memories of such fun times with you all. I'll never forget how Paul used to sit next to me at supper and lick his plate clean cause he knew it would drive me crazy. I remember trying to sleep in my sleeping bag on your living room floor when we would come visit and listening to my folks just laugh and laugh with you. Such fond memories! I will cherish them always. You are all in my thoughts and prayers and I carry you close in my heart.

Sharon & Family,
It's so hard to know what to say when we lose someone we love, who has been in our lives so many years. Paul was a one of a kind guy. He always made you laugh even though he wasn't feeling well. He added so much to everyone's life. We were blessed to have him part of our lives. I'll miss him, as I know you will. He is suffering no more and at peace. It hurts so bad that I could not be there with you. Please take care of yourself. My thoughts and prayers are with you everyday.
Love Karen & Ed

Sharon and family,
I was so sad to hear of Paul's passing. He always signed his emails to me as "Your favorite brother-in-law" and he will always remain that way in my heart...my favorite brother-in-law.
With loving sympathy,

I have so many memories of Paul, my "Uncle Paul"...I guess the best of those was seeing how much fun he and my Dad, Bill, my Mom, Barb and Sharon always had together. There was always so much laughter when we all got together, mostly because Paul and my Dad were acting like fools. I have a clear memory of Paul and Dad buzzing around like bees in thier longjohns one morning, chasing us kids all over the place and then rubbing thier whiskers on our cheeks. Paul also did a mean "Monster Mash" with my Mom, that I had the priviledge to see at Kris's wedding many years ago; I laughed until I cried. Paul was this larger than life man, a good friend to my father, who always had a soft spot for my sisters and brother and I. He may not have been blood but he was family and he will be missed. Paul, I know God has embraced you just as you had embraced me in those big arms so many times in my childhood. Sharon, Mark, Mike and Kris, you are in our thoughts and prayers. I hope you know that Paul is forever a part of my life story too!

Sharon and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Paul will be missed by all who knew him. Paul had a great sense of humor.
Paul didn't want anyone to leave hungry! He made sure you were full and offered seconds!
Paul loved to tell his fish stories.
Paul will be sorely missed. Our hearts go out to the family.

Uncle Paul was my godfather. I didn't have a chance to see him for many years but I know I was in his thoughts just as he has been in mine. He will be missed. I send my love to Aunt Sharon, Mark, Mike, and Krissy. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am a friend of Mary, Paul's sister. Many old time memories of Paul when he was a little fellow. His mother would chase him down at Hubbard camp meeting to clean him up. My deepest sympathy and prayers to each of you as you enter into another phase of life. Remember your memories.

sharon and family,
I will never forget the ornery side of Paul. He always called me "little girl". One day he asked if he offended me.Never in a million years it was my priveledge to be called "little girl" by one who loved so much.In a much better place but will be greatly missed.

Sharon and Family: I am truly sorry to here about "Mr. Jordan". I can still remember the time when he came and picked us up when the school bus got stuck in the snow. I really enjoyed having you all as neighbors and learned alot from Paul. I know he is already fishing and telling the "fishing stories" in Heaven. Peace be with you and your family.

My sympathy to your family. In our youth when we were having fun at the class parties, we never gave any thought to this time in our lives. That is the way it was meant to be. Memories are wonderful and it's good to look back and thank God for all we got to enjoy. I'll always remember the joke we played on you going to the Halloween party in the barn. Marlene and I still laugh about it. God rest your soul.

PS, sharon, do you think he will "mock it" for God??? If you see him before I do "thank him for the memories!!!"

Dearest Sharon,

This morning Mary and I relived all the memories that we could think of involving Paul. It took us a long time and there was not a bad one in the bunch. So many stories, so many joys, so much laughter. Our hearts may ache now but our thoughts are all of the many good things, great times and pleasant memories that Paul brought us.
We both love you and will miss Paul.

Although we are in Vero Beach, Florida we received word of Paul's homegoing and we, along with the Haven of Rest Family are upholding in prayer your entire family. May each of you sense the presence of the Lord during this time of bereavement as He has promised that His grace is sufficient to meet your every need.

Sharon and Family,
Our deepest heartfelt sympathy goes out to the whole family. Paul was one of the funniest and one of the nicest people to be around. He made you laugh no matter how grumpie you felt. I often think of the many dances at the athletic club and the midget football games where Paul was the life of the party. How fun was that??
Our prayers and love are with each and everyone of you. Paul will be greatly missed by all of us.

Sharon and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Paul was a great guy. Always ready to joke and even sometimes harrass me. But I always enjoyed being around him. He will truly be missed by me and my whole family. Garrett loved him from the day he met him. He loved to go to Jordan's when he was very small and waited for Paul to come out and visit him and give him the hamhock bone to nibble on. But most of all he loved when he took him to the kitchen, stuck him in the sink and cleaned him up. He has wonderful memories of him as we all do. He is finally pain free and has that contagious smile on his face again. God bless you all.

Paul,

John and I will really miss you, as will everyone else. You were so funny to work with, that's the things we'll remember most....all the funny things you did...the flag you made me for graduation!, teaching me how to spit pop at people!, your saying about needing 2 hats-one to poop in and one to cover it up in...and Johnny calling you the "chicken man"...we have some really great memories of you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time because we know they loved you more than words can say.

I bet you're fishin up there already! Love Michelle and Johnny.
