JEAN DAUM May 27, 1951 - July 23, 2007 In loving memory of my dear, long time girlfriend Jean. Jean, it's been one year since your passing and you are deeply missed by all of your family and friends. You are also fondly remembered by the thousands of people, world-wide, who gained rewarding employment because of the successful Coffee News business that you created. Remember when, as your illness was getting worse and it looked like the end was near, how I worried, loving you as profoundly as I do, that I would be too broken up to get up and speak at your memorial service? Well, that's what happened. I took comfort from your reply, which was: Aw, don't you worry, Paul, you know that if our roles were reversed, I would have exactly the same problem . Your beautiful dog, Roxy, has been a very good girl and has adjusted very well to living at my place this past year, although I know she still misses you very much. Darling, the pain of losing you last year was like having a hole in the heart that would never heal. But, with time, things are gradually getting better. I find it comforting to know that you have been released from the shackles, stresses and worries of this mortal world and are now at peace, a truly free spirit. All the wonderful memories you have left behind shall never be forgotten and you are forever loved. Your ever loving Paul.
