  1. Idabel High School Class of 1951

    Paul was a classmate that will always be remembered by the class of 1951. He was friendley, smart and nice
    looking. He was what we called a ‘country kid’ but he fit in very well as there were many ‘country kids’ in the class of 1951. He was very special and will always
    be remembered. We wish the
    family comfort and may they
    feel our care at this difficult time. God’s blessings to Paul’s family.

  2. May you all find comfort and support within the community of family and friends, and with the recounting of past experiences shared.

    Our condolences,

    Janet Reynolds & Bob Woodward

    Paul was a good-looking man in
    High School and his picture says

    will be missed by family and
    friends. May you be comforted
    in knowing others care.

    You were the brother I never had. Lots of laughs and a 1950 Ford that we managed to wreck several times.
