  3. Hazel and Family, Hearing of the loss of a true friend is like the the loss of a brother. We have enjoyed this friendship for 57 years-since 3rd grade at Johnson. My best fiend and I had many adventures, including just playing together as we grew up, the occasional ride in my Father’s Mercury and our not to be forgetten Senior year. While in our adult life we lived miles apart, this strong friendship lasted. As a Fraternial Brother, he will be missed as he was an influence in my Masonic life. I will miss Paul very much and send my deepest condolences. Sorry I cannot be with you. Ron Hankins

  6. I am sorry to read about the passing of your love one. I send my sincere condolences to the family and friends. It is at times like this that we need comfort and support whether we are acquainted or not. May the scriptures at Revelation 21: 1-5 prove to be a source of great comfort for you now and in the days to come. Your dearly beloved one will not be forgotten by you or our Heavenly Father. (Acts 24:15, Psalm 37: 29). Once again, you have my sincere condolences.
