I am so sorry for your loss. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers!!
Our sincerest sympathy! Our prayers are with you and for Paul. His contagious smile will forever be in our hearts.
I had the honor of catechizing Paul when he was in 6th grade in the Edge Program at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church. He let everyone know he was tough but he’d continuously reveal his sweet, gentle soul to me. He would test me like most teens do, but I always seemed to shock him instead by welcoming discussion of the topics he’d select. I’d make him start the discussion and have him share what he thought about the topic. It was through this discussion that he would reveal to himself that he thought differently than what society was wanting him to think. Paul not only had a beautiful smile but a beautiful soul too. In these discussions, he discovered he loved his siblings and his parents more than he ever though he could. He would do anything to protect them and love them. I firmly believe that this is what he is doing now, Protecting His Family from the best seat in the house. Love you Paul. I will forever remember our talks. My heart and prayers go out to you P.J., Clare, Phillip, Elizabeth, Peter and Catherine.
You are so loved Paul.
Clare and P.J., we are so sad to hear of Paul’s passing. He was a nice young man who was unable to fulfill his full life on earth and is now in Heaven looking down on You and Family. His Joy is His being with God and praying for all of us. You have raised Paul to be such a gift to all. We Love and pray for you.
My sincerest condolences. I pray that you find comfort in that Paul will always be with you.
I am so sorry. I know how hard it is losing a child. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. God be with you.
Hugs,
Gail and John Shannon
