Ann, Jeff and the rest of the family. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Paul for many years at Saint Raphaels. He was a great guy and will be missed by everyone who knew him.
Paul was a guy that always made me smile. He was such fun to be around and I enjoyed many family gatherings with him and he always made it better. He will be missed and I extend my sincerest sympathy to his wonderful family.
My sympathy to Ann and Paul’s family who are suffering during this time. His smile is lighting up heaven today and my prayers are with all of you at this sad time.
Dear Anne & family, There are no words to tell you how sorry we are to hear of Paul’s passing. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
