    I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It is so hard to lose a loved one especially when they are young. Paula will be missed by family and friends, but she will not be forgotten by our heavenly father Jehovah. Jesus’ words found at (John 5:28,29) says there will be a resurrection. This means that Paula will be given a fresh new start with the prospect of living forever. (Psalms 37:29) I hope these words bring comfort knowing that you have an opportunity to see her again to continue sharing all the wonderful times together.

    I (we) were so sad to hear the news of Paula’s passing. I received a Christmas card from my Aunt Mary with Paula’s obituary today and was shocked and saddened. Paula was such an awesome woman! I remember as a child all of the fun times we had swimming in your pool and how welcoming you always were to my entire family.
    Russ, you have been a dear friend to the family through my father’s passing and helping my mom, myself and my children. Please know that the Welty family have always been wonderful people and Paula was at the center of this. I know this is an incredibly difficult time for you but know Paula is in heaven with Jesus and there is no better place than that.
    You are in our thoughts an prayers. Our condolences.
    Sincerely,
    Your Friends
