Myself, Claude, and our family would like to express our sincerest gratitude for the abundance of support that has been pouring in during this devastating time. As most of you know, Paul’s Autobody has been a family-owned and operated business since 1965, and on Dec. 4th it caught fire. This has been truly heartbreaking for our family. We want to express the warmest thank you and appreciation to our friends, family, customers, community, and car community. Sincerely, thank you to everyone who has driven to see us, called, sent messages, brought coffee or food, extended their help, and checked in on us—it has meant more than we can put into words.
Hearing your kind words and appreciation for us, for Paul’s Autobody, and for all that it stood for has been incredibly special. The stories about Paul, Claude, and the boys are always welcome—we love to hear them and be reminded of the legacy we have kept alive.
We would also like to thank the Fire Department and the Police Department for responding so quickly and working with such efficiency, while still giving us the space to be present that night. Having the support of our community and the extended car community has reminded us how special it is and how lucky we are to be part of it. Truly, thank you for supporting our business and our spirits at this time.
—Claude & Terry
