To Helen and the Monachino Family, my deepest sympathy and prayers upon the death of Paul. I am so grateful for the opportunity to know and work with Paul as a member of the Greater Buffalo Sertoma Club. He had a big heart. I so enjoyed our collaboration with activities to serve mankind. He was so genuine and humble. May God bless you. May Paul rest in peace.
