I was so shocked to hear of Paula's death. I worked with her back in the days of Providence Journal Cellular & Cellular One (~ 1990). She and another co-worker threw a bridal shower for me at work & it really brightened my day. She was always very caring and considerate of others and she was ALWAYS smiling. I am so sorry for your loss and hope that you find comfort.

To Len,
I was shocked and very sorry to hear of Paula's passing. She became a good friend when we went through graduate school to get our MBA. I know she loved you very much by the things she spoke of. I'm sure she is watching over you now. I hope God and his disciples will help you, your family, and friends get through this. I will miss Paula even though we haven't had much contact since we graduated. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
