Dearest Paul, still think about you and miss you. While trimming bushes and clearing brush from behind the fence I was really thinking about you-i know you liked doing these kind of things! Keep up the good work watching over all of us here, I'm glad you are in heaven and not suffering. Peace and love, Linda and BooMer the schipperke, you know, like Iko-Iko

Happy Birthday Paul! I still think about you fondly and with many exciting memories of fun and shenanigans that you always were ready with. It seems like yesterday when I would come to town to get my hair done and so you could give a good teasing to me. I hope you are not causing too much commotion up there, but just enough to keep everybody paying attention! Love you

Happy Heavenly Birthday my sweet and sarcastic angel ❤️ While I wish you were physically here with us so we could celebrate together, I know you’re watching over us all while we celebrate you! I love you, keep an eye on us all down here until we can see you again

Hello Paul, It's now eight years 4 months since you left us. Jill and I will soon be Grumpa and Nana for the 3rd time this December. Michael and Emily are having another baby girl.
Well I'm retired now. Jill is still working but plans on calling it quits next year. It was weird being retired for the first few months but now I couldn't even think about having to work full-time

We also added a second dog to the family his name is Henry he is a French Bulldog and Pug mix. Jill and I went on vacation in May to the U.P. It was a fun vacation. Saw Black Bears in Bayfield, WI and we did a boat trip to the Apostle Islands and the Soo Locks. Saw many old light houses and ate plenty of White Fish.

Take Care,

Give Dad a hug for me.

Dear Paul(a) - Still remember you and still miss you so much. You would like BooMer - schipperke #4, I love him and he is a special little naughty boy. He would love to run around in the salon, like Iko used to to. I still think about you all the time and know you are remembered and loved, still. Linda

Hi Paul well it's been 7 years and a few Great Uncle babies are now here. Jill and I have a grandson named Malcolm Jules White. He is 16 months old. He will soon be joined by his new baby sister to be Lucille Anabelle White. Your nephew Michael and his wife Emily are the proud parents. Well in six months I will turn 62 so I am thinking about retiring. Jill wants to work till 65. Three more years doesn't sound long but for me it is so we will see

You have more Great Uncle babies from your other nephews and nieces but I'll let your other siblings tell you about them.

Take care,

Love George & Jill

Happy Birthday in heaven Uncle Paul. I can’t believe this is the 6th birthday without you. It feels like yesterday we were just sitting in your house watching TV with you while your fireplace was going. While you’ve been gone, I graduated high school and I leave for my first semester of college next Wednesday. I can hear you up in heaven congratulating me while calling me a smartass at the same time. I already know you would be calling everything I picked for my dorm ugly. I wish I was able to hear it in person instead, but knowing exactly what you would say is comforting. Not a day goes by where I don’t miss you, and I know that you know that. I hope you’re celebrating up in heaven with Papa and the rest of our family. I love you long time.

Hello Paul, can you believe it's been 5 yrs already, crazy. So while you been away your nephews Daniel & Michael got married. So we have two lovely daughter-in-laws Nikki (Daniel) and Emily (Michael) added to the white clan. No Grandbabies yet but our fingers are crossed:-)
Your last baby bulldog Zoey will be 8 yrs old this September. Daniel has been taking good care of her. Jill and I moved from Mount Vernon to a little town called Atkins. We are both ready to retire:-) So what's the weather like there? Ours has been kind of sucky. Give Dad and the rest of our family our love. Take care brother.

Thinking of you Paul on your birthday.
I was hearing about Aretha Franklin on the news and thought of us dancing around the salon to her music, when we didn't have any customers, and how we laughed so hard.
You would roll your pants up to your knees and come out of the backroom dancing. What a nut!!!  HAAAAAAA I'm still laughing at that scene!!!

I still think about you all the time Paul - I know you are is a good place, safe and teasing everybody like you are famous for. Miss you lots and want to thank you for gathering my schipperke crew together - I know three are a handful and I know you would want an even number so I am on my way to get "4" in a couple of weeks - I hope he won't be too wild and I will try to pick appropriately, as I know you told me when you were with to get Iko-Iko, that I couldn't pick because I was picking the wrong one. Hopefully 4 won't be too wild, just be thankful that at least you don't have to experience him being naughty like Iko was as a tiny pup. Peace to you my friend.

I can't believe its been 2 years since your passing. I think about you all the time and laugh at the wild and crazy times and memories. Linda

Where do I even start! So,so many memories and stories. We were just talking about Paul the other day when I was putting blue polish an someone's nails and we said Paul would be saying that looks so gross! Old Paul, he was relentless. I have so many stories after 28 years of working together, I could go on and on. Of course there was never a dull moment with Paul around. He said whatever was on his mind, good or bad or shocking. He liked to shock you and he always succeeded. One thing he did do every single day, was mention his family. He loved telling stories about his childhood, his Grandma, his Mom and Dad, his siblings. I mean every single day! I don't think a day passed without him mentioning them. He truly loved his family, even though you would never know it, from his sarcastic comments. We did thrive in our business, even though I thought many times, he would scare people off with his nasty comments, they just came back for more. Only Paul could get away with it.  Happy Birthday Paul, I would make a flower arrangement for you, but I know what you would say: well the old people would like it! I"m sure you are dancing up in heaven with your pants rolled up to your knees,just like you used to do in the salon and making me laugh so hard.. I will dance to an Aretha Franklin song in the salon and dedicate it to you. Love,ya Bud Gina

Happy 54th Birthday Paul

Love George & Jill

Dear Paul - I hope you have a great cake tomorrow for your birthday and that there is plenty of I-C-E for you there as well, for your beverage! I miss you, as we all do, and know you are there making everybody there laugh and turn red with embarrassment from the teasing. I would imagine everybody there looks good, with you doing their hair, hopefully you haven't tricked any of them into the purple and pink hair as you did me years ago, with the "temporary" color - that was really permanent color!

I put on my blue running shoes on today & I thought of Paul when I got those shoes on. He said: "These shoes are so ugly!" So I've been wearing my "ugly" blue running shoes because they reminded me of Paul.. A few weeks later Paul said he was going to buy a pony for Lee, so he could ride it along with me while I ran.. Only Paul would come up with crazy things like that. He didn't end up getting a pony but he did take our boys on a road trip to buy chickens, as, according to him, we needed new chickens. Hearing him talk about his road trip during that cold winter with our boys made us so happy, as Paul was so thrilled and truly happy to shift his mind from being ill to having the time of his life - getting new chickens for his brother! :)
We all miss Paul so very much! His wittiness, his crazy remarks, always being honest and never thinking about what came out of his mouth.. He was certainly one of a kind! He loved life and lived it to its fullest.. And he left this world surrounded by his family, feeling loved and warm.. I hope you have a wonderful Birthday, Paul, up in Heaven with your dad and both grandmas! I can only imagine what you guys are saying to each other up there!
Love, Aurie (your sister-in-law with ugly blue shoes)...

Happy Birthday Uncle Paul! I was thinking of you the other day when I had gathered with some friends and I said what everyone was thinking, they all laughed and said "Oh Hannah, only you would..." But I thought, if only they knew you! The world needs more people who are not afraid to say what's on their mind, it takes courage, thank you for being brave. I love and miss you.

Happy Birthday Dear Brother and Uncle.
We Miss and Love YOU
Love Lee, Aurie, Olivia, Luke and Nik

So many memories - and so many laughs we all shared with Paul. A true friend, a childhood friend, who made such a difference in our lives by being the Paul we loved! Will forever miss you and I hope they have lots of I-C-E machines there in heaven! 

I look forward to seeing and reading notes and memories of Paul on his birthday August 15th!

A piece of my heart you took with you that night,
how big of a piece, i don't think anyone will ever
know-not even you.     I love you, Anne
