Growing up in the St. Petersburg United Methodist Church has given me many good memories of Paul and Pearl - such kind people and a loving couple.

To Paul's Family,

I am deeply saddened by Paul's passing. In my teenage years, Paul had a tremendously positive impact upon me. He was a fabulous neighbor; a role model like few others; and, a real icon in his community of St. Petersburg. He helped us build a "field of dreams' ball field behind his home and he was always up for a fun game of softball or having good times with his neighbors. Pearl, the love of his life, teamed with Paul in making our neighborhood one filled with love, respect and dignity. I was always in admirations of his warmth of character, generosity and kindness of personality. He was certainly one in a million.

My wife, Alice and I extend our prayers and most sincere condolences to Paul's loving and wonderful immediate and extended family.

So sorry to hear of the loss of Uncle Paul. When I called him after Mom passed he told me he was not doing well, but he was cheerful as always. He will be missed.

Paul was greatly loved by my parents and siblings. I loved my big brother and I'll miss him terribly. We spoke on the phone two days ago and he sounded perfect, which lifted my heart greatly. I take solace he passed peacefully in his sleep.

I imagine tonight he is reunited with my parents in the house of the Lord.
