Twelve days after being denied medication, Paul arrived at the Montfort Hospital on Friday, February 9, 2024, where they tried valiantly to save him; but he predicted his own death. On Sunday, February 11, 2024, he began his last flight ending it at five thirty pm.
There will be no visitation. A private graveside service will be held in the National Military Cemetery located at Beechwood Cemetery.
“Per ardua ad astra”
My deepest, sincerest sympathies for Mary and Family
I deeply regret on behalf of those who refused him the necessary medications which truly the necessities for life
Paul is truly a remarkable, wonderful man.
I remember that my truck had broken down so many times and Paul volunteered himself and his time to help me through to make the repairs, he himself refused to do any of the actual work but taught me how to fix those things step-by-step, only by doing can you actually learn things which is truly the best gift he had given me.
As I got to know him more and more, I felt it in him as truly a fatherly caring man.
I say Paul IS all of those things and not WAS.
When people die, they automatically become WAS-He WAS that...She WAS that...which is not true of Paul, ALL of those things are in his Soul and His Spirit which make up the Man he IS
His loving, caring Soul and Spirit WILL carry on wherever he may be in God's Hands
With Much Love for Paul, Mary and Family
