Guestbook

  1. I always saw Paul at home depot and he always talked about how much he loved his wife and family. He was always so sweet through school and at work. I’m going to miss him. Prayers if love and comfort coming to his family.

  2. Darin, Brenda and Ethan, Keith and I are sorry to hear of the passing of your brother Buck. May his soul find eternal rest. We pray that the Lord give you the fortitude and comfort you need to bear this great loss.

  3. Vickie we are so sorry for your loss. Paul was such a nice guy and I first met him years ago when he was a bouncer known as “Pork Chop” and then years later when you met Paul and fell head over heels for him and introduced us to him…I had to chuckle because I already knew him. You two were such a great couple and were always laughing and you could just see the love in your eyes every time you talked about him. We are so thankful we dropped in on you both and got to see him once again before he passed into the arms of our Lord and Savior. May God watch over you during this most difficult time.
