    Paul, we loved the way you always called Sonia your bride when you took her hand to walk. You always looked like the most wonderful loving couple even after all your years of marriage. You both are an inspiration to your family and friends.

    You will be dearly missed but always loved.

    Ed and Sylvia Mangold

    So sorry to hear about Paul, but sounds like you both have had a wonderful life traveling back and forth during the seasons. I lost my husband a short time ago and I can feel your pain. It has been many years since I have seen the two of you, but if I can help in any way please feel free to call me.
