I am glad that I got to know Paul in high school as he was a good fella and a friendly Marion classmate. He always had a big smile for everyone he greeted. I was sorry to hear of his passing and my thoughts and prayers are with his family at this very difficult time dealing with his loss.

I'm so sorry to read of Paul's passing. He was such a good guy - always friendly and caring. I was privileged to have known Paul during our school years - from St. Patrick's School in Natick, MA through Marian High School in Framingham, MA. May he rest in peace.
