Paul A Restuccia

I am so profoundly sad to hear of the death of my friend Paul Restuccia, who was one of those my wife and I had arrived from Virginia to visit in New England on August 3. Having corresponded by email with him (on his old AOL account) last February, when we invited him to my son Travis' wedding reception, I received a reply telling me the details of his serious health issue, but which he said he felt “optimistic about”. I responded to him in March, after spending some time to really take in...

Paul was such a wonderful person and a talented writer/editor. We worked together for 10 years at the Boston Herald. Paul often visited me in the Library to chat and see how I was doing. I will miss him very much.

I'll never forget the first time I learned Paul had written a play that was being performed in Boston. I'd always known him as a fellow editor and it was a wonderful insight into his life outside the Herald. In the workplace, he was always the first to offer to lend a hand or proofread a page. When I might have been stressed, he often seemed to impart a sense of calm.

My condolences to all of his loved ones; I wish I were able to be there in person to give them.

So sorry to hear about Paul. He and I have been neighbors for many years. I certainly will miss bumping into him on a daily basis.

Prayers and thoughts are with the Restuccia family. Paul will be missed and will always be in our memories. Love Dan and Corinne

So sorry to hear of the loss of Paul - such a wonderful man. We always enjoyed our chats at the Riley family events with Paul - he will be surely missed. Our thoughts and prayers to the Restuccia Family today & always. Much Love, Brian & Ellen
