Bro Paul was such a wonderful blessing to Center Ridge Pentecostal Church in Davisville. Without a doubt when he stood to testify, he would end with a big praise for our Lord. His smile and love for the Lord will never be forgotten.
He ran the race and finished with honors. We know that there’s no doubt that Bro Paul is rejoicing with the Lord in person.

Bro Paul is a dear family friend and personal friend./Mentor His conversations were about scriptures. His encouraging words will be forever missed.We spent a lot of time together talking about heaven And all of its splinter and beauty that awaits. We had the privilege to be with brother Paul for several years. .. I have a lot of Favorite Memories but the best of all is when he would be talking about God / heaven and throw his hand up toward heaven and praise God with tears..
