My heart goes out to you ! Be thankful Paul is through with all his pain and suffering. But to be taken so suddenly is so difficult for all of you. He had a special place in our hearts too, my picture of him and Lenny leaving for the Air Force is so clear in my mind.

The hole in your heart will remain forever. That's part of life. Love, Lucille LaFreniere
