“SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND”


My brother had a really cute little saying he used to say. He used to write it in cards, off of e-mail or he would just say it -- he used to say ”Shine On You Crazy Diamond.”

For some reason that little saying started to have more meaning to me in the last few days.

Paul’s birthstone is the diamond. Quality diamonds are clear, they're strong and those that are of unusual color are highly prized.

CLEAR-- My mom believes that Paul was very clear about God’s role in his life in the past few months.

STONG - Paul was strong willed and determined to become a Firefighter.

AND OF UNUSUAL COLORS - I think we can all agree that Paul could be sometimes very unusually colorful.

Paul is our Crazy Diamond. He is our prized diamond. They also say that a diamond is forever.

Well Paulie, you will be greatly missed here on earth…..but every time I see a really bright star in the sky, I will say to you, my brother, my faithful friend &
my HERO- - Go on. Go on and be happy.
SHINE ON FOREVER, YOU CRAZY DIAMOND!
