It was a pleasure to work with you at ASI, Paul. You made the company picnics very enjoyable with your antics. Thanks for taking the time to teach me about your Cajun heritage and exposing me to some GREAT music that I still enjoy. Many blessings and prayers for your family as they face this life without you. May they find peace in knowing we will see you again waiting at the Pearly Gates with arms wide open. Enjoy your ultimate Fais do-do, my friend. You will be missed. Aletha Jackson - 1 second ago
