Paul, Jo-Ann and family I’m sorry for your loss. But Paul Sr is reunited with Louise now and in no more pain & suffering.
I remember going out to your parents’ house when I was little. He was always nice, if intimidating to a tiny little girl. Your mom was just so loving & caring. We’d splash in the pond on their property. Seems I’ve known your dad my whole life.
I will be praying for God to comfort you through your grief.
Peace and love
Paul, JoAnn and family. So sorry for your loss. He's with Lois now for real. The poor soul missed her so much and felt she was still here. I pray for peace, strength and His love to embrace all of you. Sorry we can't come up.You know Shelly's got serious health issue going on and going to Moffitt.
Sorry
Paul and Joann sorry for your lost
