Tribute to my Uncle Paul

March 1999

March 2000


I recieved a phone call just a bit ago and was told that my Uncle Paul had passed away. He had been having some health problems and Hospice was called in last week to help. I feel sad and that we've lost a great Man! He was a good father and raised 5 children, numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren plus neices, lol...I remember him as a hard-worker and a man that loved to farm, it was his life. I know he is in a much better place and feeling no pain. I honestly feel for my Aunt who was married to him for 60+ years! They seemed to have a good strong marriage and I've always looked up to them for that....Things happened that brought me down here to Texas and I grew apart from My Aunt and Uncle who raised me but I will always remember the good times and my prayers go out to their family. I have decided not to attend the funeral as I want to remember Uncle Paul the way he was and keep those memories forever in my mind.
