I am Paul’s sister and wanted to thank those of you who attended his funeral today. Special thanks to Jere who was such a loyal friend to my brother, especially after his strokes. You helped him with so many tasks outside of my brothers home, which he was no longer able to complete on his own. You did so with such grace. I want to thank my niece and her family for attending. I also want to thank Wanda’s daughters. They have become a big part of our family. Bob and Wanda, so glad you were able to be with us at LGH, as Paul was in his final hours on this planet, and Ryan your father would have been so proud of you this week, and today as am I. Katie and Olivia thanks for being by Ryan’s side. Thanks to my love Gary, for being by my side since learning of Paul’s admittance to LGH.

My condolences to your family. Paul was always a joy to work with and was always quick with a joke. He was easy to work with at SIFCO due to his knowledge of our process. I am sure he will find peace in the Lords hands.
