Private services will be held for Paul and he will be taken home to “retire and sleep” at his home on the farm after riding one last time around the farm he grew with his wife, Schriner’s Patch. Every farmer puts his land to rest for the winter. On springs horizon it is brought back to life. God has put this farmer to rest, and with a spring in his step, hat in hand, he walks the horizon to a new life. We will miss you every day of each season but visit you often on the farm, your home forever.
