Great memories and blessings from brother Paul. Prayers for the Eubanks family.
He was my first ever preacher, at the age of 4, and by far my favorite. He was truly a best friend to my dad and a person you could always go to. His love for God, life and his family showed in everything he did. God gained a precious and incredible Angel. Thoughts and prayers for the family along with my love.
Love, prayers & condolences to Paul’s family. Paul was a wonderful man & minister of the Lord’s church. He is certainly missed by all who knew him. ❤️

So sorry to hear about Paul’s passing. I met him when he was in my Christmas radio play “It’s A Wonderful Life” several years ago in New Orleans. What a great ‘Mr. Potter’ he portrayed! – which was the antithesis of his real-life persona – such a sweet man. RIP Paul.
Please excuse. This was my friend Paul’s father Paul. My apologies and condolences Paul.
