Paul will be missed! To his children I pray that his legacy of love and kindness is carried on by you. Paul loved his family with all his heart and in his present you felt that. I am happy that the Lord gave me him for a dear brother because that he was. His phone calls and visits would brighten my day every single time. He got his wings, for now farewell my brother until we meet again. I will cherish your memories… “sister”
Champ, Jerelle, Brenda and the Jones family. I am so sorry for your loss. Death has a way of bringing tears of sadness but God has given a promise at Revelation 21:4 that he will wipe all tears and death will be no more! There will be a promised resurrection soon to come and we have the wonderful privilege of seeing Paul again. I love you and want to extend my services in anyway that you need me.
Praying for the family in Jesus name. Paul will be missed.
May our Lord bless and comfort you and your family during this time of grief. Please accept our sincere condolences.
So saddened to hear of the passing of Paul. He was a great friend of the Sewell family. My thoughts and prayers are with the family
