Great friend
Leta,
I worked with Paul in Lubbock. I was the VI Secretary. I’m so sorry for your loss. Just remember the good times you had in the last 64 years. That is amazing. I enjoyed working with Paul. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers
Aunt Leta, Jerry & Family: So sorry for Your loss. Prayers and thoughts for you all. I thank You and Uncle Paul for being present when Mom passed.
Aunt Leta and Cousin Jerry, I’m very sorry for your loss! I will miss him too, as he’s been my rock when I needed advice, support, or even a bit of laughter and fun sometimes. We will meet again in heaven. Please let me know if you need anything. Love you both, Debbie Harvell
