Please accept my very sincere condolences. I have always admired my cousin bud for his kindness and gentle nature. As a teenager, so many years ago I spent a lot of time with my cousins and he was one of them. We had a lot of fun and laughs and when all of them were in the service they would get together at our house when they could.
I know he is at peace now. I always looked forward to his very newsy letters in the past few years and I missed them and his phone calls when we would catch up. He told me all about his cats, so I hope they have good homes now. Please take care. I will keep Bud in my prayers.
Just one of the cousins, Pauline Roberts

I was married to Paul’s son Michael for 10 years. during that time Paul helped us tremendously with the maintenance of our property and taking Michael to the hospital when I had to stay with the kids in the middle of the night. He was always very good to me and like a second father to me. I am very sorry I could not go to the service today, but please know that your are always in my prayers and I love you all.

Sorry to hear of Paul passing. I didn’t know him but found him listed in the stimac family tree document my aunt gave me years ago. Knowing a lot of stimacs I’m certain he’ll be missed by many.
