  • Episode 1: Aunt Susie and Uncle Max
    Dec 21 2020

    To know my cousin Paul is to know his family, especially his mom and dad, my Aunt Susie and Uncle Max. Although they love each other and have a funny way of saying it, they love talking about Paul way more. He was the “love of their life” (their two daughters don’t mind them saying it, either, because they know it’s true.) So when Paul was killed in the line of duty, their world was turned upside down. This is how it all started. If you listen closely, you can hear Paul laughing.
