Jimmie and Kids, We never expect to lose a loved one, so dear, even though we feel we have tried to prepare. Your entire family has been such a huge part of Paul's life. Family friends like yours are truley rare. I have come to know and love your family through Paul's many memories and stories he loves to tell. Our visits with you are always a delight as well. Through the years there have been many times when Paul was not sure what to do about a situation, "Let me call Gene" he would say. Gene always knew what to say in his knowledgeable, sincere and easy going way. Paul seemed to grow from these lessons from Gene. Thank you Hammonds for being so close to the Bozarths these many years. God Bless you and keep you all. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Debbie Bozarth
