We will all miss Paul. He truly was a great man. I will never forget his concern when we were in Las Vegas three years ago. We were out to lunch with him when Len had a piece of steak louged in his throat. He drove us to the hospital and stayed with for hours. He also would call to see how we were feeling. In June or July he called and gave strict orders to take care of myself. He used some words I won't write to make his point. Be asured he his happy to be with Shirley. It was lonely for him without her, I know.

Dear Danny, Bridget, Nancy, Kirk, Bailey, Shari and Brian,



We were all so sad to hear about the death of Paul. Take deep comfort in your wonderful memories. He was truly a great man.



Ralph Waldo Emerson states it so beautifully,



Our fear of death is like our fear that summer will be short, but when we have our swing of pleasure, our fill of fruit, and our swelter of heat we say we have had our day.



We think Paul had his swing of pleasure, his fill of fruit, and you

should rest assured that Paul enjoyed his life.



Hopefully, all of your fond memories you have will help you through these difficult days. When you have a steak think of how Paul liked his steak well-done and with ketchup. Think of how Paul enjoyed his coffee and biscotti. The little things are what should bring a smile to your face.



Paul was a wonderful man and each of us are happy that we got to know him and we also are sad that he has left us. He will always be in our hearts and memories.



With all our love, sympathy and support.
