Dear Betty Lou and family,
I was so saddened to hear about Paul. I remember meeting you all at DCI, when our boxes were right next to each other in Ma., how much fun we all had, and how we all became friends. Paul was a wonderful man, full of life and could always make you laugh. We will miss him.
Our deepest condolences to you all. If there is anything, please don't hesitate.
Our love to you all,
Maya and Dan Vannatta

Dear Betty Lou, Paul, Erin, & Jessica,
We were so sorry to hear the loss of Paul.
As being your neighbors in Dorchester, we always thought very highly of all of you and especially Paul. He was always a kind, gentle person and loving husband and father to you and his kids. I will always remember him loading up the car with bats for a baseball game.
How he was so dedicated to that.
We will always remember him and he will be in our thoughts and prayers as well as your family.
May you all always hold on to the fond memories and never let them go.
God Bless You Paul .
Sincerely with love ,
Peggi, Jack, Mathew, Kristin & Johnny Breen

I did not know Paul but, I wish I had. I did experience the impact he had at the South Postal Annex. As I had seen he was a WONDERFUL GUY. He was also a wonderful friend to many. He was not only a union steward ( and as I heard he did a great job at it ) but, a wonderful fellow worker, and friend. My blessings go out to his entire family and friends.

Betty Lou, Paul, Erin, Jessica, Anne, Jay and Ed,
I was very sad to hear of the loss of Paul. We will always have such great memories of Paul. He was always so much fun to be around. I'll always remember the great times we had at Marshfield, the races around the cottage and swimming at the beach with all the cousins. I remember Paul was a big Bruins fan when they had that great team and Derek Sanderson was his favorite player. I remember going to the band competitions and rooting for the Lancers and staying at the home in Randolph. Paul was always friendly to everyone, he loved his wife and family and was proud of his children. Our lives were enriched by knowing him. I'll never forget Paul. Betty Lou and Paul, Erin and Jesica I'll be thinking of you and hoping that all the good memories of Paul will stay with you for the rest of your lives.
Your cousin,
Chris

Dear Betty Lou, Paul, Erinn, Paulie, Erin & Jessica;
Our hearts are broken - there are no words on how much we will miss him. Paul was a man of great "faith" - he is at peace now in God's care & God's home. His "spirit" will live on in each and everyone of us through his grandon Paul Edward III who he adored, cherished and loved - he considered his grandson his "little angel" sent from heaven above to him and all of us. We will always feel and see Paul's spirit through Paulie.
Love, Rich & Regina
