My condolences to Kathy, Sons and their Families. I know how much he loved all of you and and how he took pride in all your accomplishments. He was one of the most Special people I have ever met. He possessed Wisdom, Humor, Insight and a Warm Heart. Also some remnants of that great Boston accent! He had that ability, that when you were done conversing, you felt not only good about yourself, but life in general. That's a true gift. He truly made this world a better place. And I believe that secures his place in Heaven. He may have left us physically but he hasn't left our Hearts! Thanks Paul, Your Friend Mike Wall ( Ed Gabes )
I count myself lucky to have known Paul (and Kathleen) for 60+ years. We met in Chicago when I was a new trainee for the Social Security Administration and Paul was a manager at that office. Kathleen and I were roommates for about a year in Chicago.
Paul lived his life as a fine human being, as a fine citizen, and as a true blue husband and father.
We were able to visit back and forth a few times including vacations in North Carolina and Texas as well as my infrequent trips to Oshkosh for the airplane festivities.
My best to his family and friends.

Kathleen, so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Unfortunately I will be out of town on the day of the service. Take care of yourself.
