Individual Details
Paul Meredith Culp Sr.
(13 Jan 1910 - 13 Aug 2012)
Paul died peacefully in his sleep at 102 and seven months. He had no pain or illness to deal with, his body just wore out. His prayers were answered to be called home to be with the Lord and his many friends and loved ones that went before him. He was never impatient or had a negative comment about anythig, despite the loss of hearing and diminished eyesight making it very difficult to be positive. He was kind, considerate and appreciative to the end, and he left a wonderful legacy.
He was buried beside his wife of almost seventy years at the Garden of Memories Cemetery in Kerrville, TX on August 18, 2012..
