Norma, Bobby,Mike, and Joey, There is no way I can tell you just how much I have always loved your family. Each one has a special place in my heart. I will miss Paul but not like you. He was a special friend and I feel Blessed just to have known him. He was always so full of life. I will never forget the gossip tree that we use to sit under for hours at a time and watch different people come by, and of course that was another subject. Think you for letting me share in your life and Pauls life. I am blessed also. I pray that God will bless ech one of you and give you the strength you need now. Just remember Paul will celebrate Christmas with Jesus this Christmas and he can talk and not more pain. May God Bless you all. I love you, Muriel
