Condolences to the family. This was my elementary school principal. I tried to look him up to say just how much he made a difference in my life and saw the unfortunate news. I am now 37 years old and thriving in life, he was instrumental to my success. I hope that this message gives you a smile that he has touched so many lives! :)

Our deepest condolences to you all Mrs.Zaremba, Audra, Scott, and Chris. I babysat you kids a few times when you were little and enjoyed a good visit with your parents a while ago when I noticed their beautiful landscaped front yard. I do remember what a kind man he was and the joy in his face talking about his family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sincerely, Jacquie, Jim, and Helena McMillan

Our kind ,generous and wonderful friend. You will be missed so much. You did our shopping, You drove us for doctor appointments and to the hospital when needed. We got in on any sale you would find at no frills. Thank you very much. If we offered to fill your car with gas you always had it full. Who could ask for a better friend than you. Rest in piece Paul. Ron and Sonia Hilderman

Joyce and family, Our sincerest sympathy at the passing of Paul. I have always thought of Paul as my 'other' brother. I will always remember Paul as being a 'wiry' playful brother. As kids, Paul, my twin brother Peter and I, would play out in our yard in Rutland and Paul would run circles around us. Paul was always into something, but was never caught. I was so happy to have finally made contact with Paul these last few years. May memories of the happier days with Paul be yours to hold, and help to ease your burden of sorrow and uphold you the days and years to come. May Paul rest in peace. Mercedes & William Riben

Although my family did not know Paul for years, he was definitely a part of everything that we do at turtle lake! From his generous tailgate parties, rough rider/stamps rivalry (Paul always cheered for the underdog) his gardening & lawn advice, he was a wise and wonderful neighbor! I will really miss my chats on the dock, by the fire or just passing through on my way for a swim. Paul “is” the lake experience for my family & will be truly missed but thought of whenever I put out a new book to my “little library” grow a tomatoe/cucumber or remember how generous he was with our pets. Our dogs Stella & Dot will never be able to pass their cabin without looking for a treat from Paul! He always had one in his pocket. May you RIP Paul. Whenever I see a sunset over the lake I’ll be thinking of ya. Love The Veenstras John Holly Dariya & Marina
