as many of you know i am the oldest of the Anderson nieces. i have so many memories and stories i could share but i have one that was the best. when i lived in Cheyenne over on Allison Uncle Paul would come over and go to church with us every sunday. he would stay for dinner and we would set and visit and tell stories of when we were all young. one sunday he told me he has always wanted to take his nieces and nephews out for an ice cream. so after dinner we played some cards then about 4 in the sfternoon he said come on sissy. so I just followed him out to his little truck and he yelled at David to come on, we were going to McDonalds to get an ice cream cone. when we got there he ordered three ice cream cones and we sat there and just enjoyed our ice cream cones. we laughed and told stories of fishing on the mountain and he said that was a perfect way to end the day. he took us back home and gave me a hug then said he would be back next sunday and he was . i remember lots of times we did things but that time was special and i felt special i was the one who got to share that ice cream with him. rest in peace uncle Paul. i hope your mansion is all you expected it to be when you got to heaven. i am still building mine uncle but it's about finished so I will see you soon. i love you always and forever, amen.
My deepest sympathies to the family of Paul. The loss of a dear loved one is one of the most difficult things to ever go through. I wanted to share the comforting promise of a resurrection found in the Bible at John 5:28,29. Please let the God of all comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) give you strength, comfort and hope during this time of sorrow.
My dear sweet Uncle Paul. I will always remember the fun times we had. The fishing, camping, reunions. You will be missed so much I love you. Always in my heart and never forgotten
