Here are some special memories shared by family and friends.
Well i guess i am the first to write. There is so much i can say about someone like this. He was very go Get R' Done type. Within the years i have grown up with him as my uncle i have had the fun times, the silly times and everytime you can think of. Its sad to say the last time i had taken him out it was to a bar, but we had fun as a family, and as a family we will stand by each other. The best thing i can say is, he finally found someone he really started to care about, and really wanted to do more in/for his life then to his life. This person started to love him like he has never been loved, showed him feelings that he hasnt seen in years, and made a wonderful impact on his personality. Even though this had just started the changes were unforgetable, the good changes. This person has a wonderful heart and i hope doesn't disapear with this wonderful heart of hers, Rosa. You started to show him a good road to take, and im so sorry that road came to a stop for him. But it doesn't mean it has to for you. Uncle Paul, i love the fact that you did try everything you could to make it better. Im sorry to not have you around anymore, im gonna miss the funny times ! To my mom and uncle John, there is a love there that i will never know, never know of having a brother. But as a neice i can see it was a great thing. Uncle john & Hot Momma Donna, I Love you all with every bit of my heart. Unlce Paul, I will remember everythng i encountered with you. Its sad to say the most important thing in his life he always thought about, he could never touch, see, or feel. He could only dream..... Sarah Fordyce I wish this girl got to know him as he dad, she would of been happy. So at least i can say it might not have worked in the begining, but why do they say life can change at any second, because an act of life can give life in any shape or form. Im sorry to say Sarah didn't have much of a chance to take with that act of life. Uncle Paul I Love You So Much, The Men in our family are disapearing, why ? Only God can tell. I Miss You, I Love You. Mom and John, I Love you both and you mean just as much to me !!

My Dear Brother Paul, Oh how you will be missed!I can remember all the good times we had playing when we were growing up and sharing our thoughts and feelings about life as we got older. No matter what you were going through you allways let me know that you were a phone call away if I needed you. I know you are with Dad and Preston now and are going to be just fine! We on the other hand will be sad and think of you often until we see you again. My Love Forever Your Sister, Donna

We shared many good times that I will never forget. My condolences go out to Grace, Donna, John and everyone that was a part of his life.

Paul I love you! You were a great son! Loving and caring person. And you will be missed very much. You went through some rough times in your life , and I was allways there for you to help get you through them. And if i needed anything you were willing to help in what ever way you good. I only wish that you could of been with us longer, and been able to live the life that you were deserving of. The time you shared with Rosa was to short. Now those memories will have to get her through the tough times of missing you! You will allways be in my heart, my Son! Your Mom, Allways and Forever,
