Paul, Mia, Dino Nina and Barbara. My heart goes out to you for your loss. Your dad was a great man and accomplished great things. Please find healing in knowing that so many people are thinking of you at this time. With Love, Melodie Phillips-Ratto

Coach Camera was my Pop Warner Football coach during the 1970's. He was an extremely compassionate man and it was a pleasure having him as a coach. My deepest sympathies to my teammate (young Paul). Your husband/father was an outstanding man and made big a difference in the lives of many young boys (including me). With my deepest sympathies, John Teeling, Billings, Montana

Just received my latest issue of the Marin Catholic Alumni magazine and was saddened to hear the news that Coach Paul Camera had passed away. He was a wonderful coach, successful lawyer and most of all a great Dad.

I was not the best player on any of the teams that he coached me but he always made me feel as important as any of the other players. I admired him for taking the time from his busy life to go out and be a coach. He will be missed and I am so thankful that he was a...

Paul was a wonderful and inspirational teammate at Stanford. He was known by his nickname, "Twinkle Toes" because of the way he ran on and off the field. He was a primary force in knocking Ohio State out of their number one ranking with their Heisman Trophy winner, Howard Cassidy.
He represented me in my divorce, and as impressive as his win was for me, it was overshadowed by the manner in which he treated my ex with such dignity and respect.
He will be sorely missed by all at the...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.



We were simply devastated to hear of Paul’s passing. This was a gentleman who touched our lives, our minds, our hearts and our very souls. He entered into our lives on a professional basis, with his crusty exterior and marshmallow filling. He wormed his way into our hearts with his passion, his intelligence, his humor, and his colorful vocabulary, as he fought with every ounce of his being, for our rights. Along the way he expanded our minds and our hearts. He earned and...

The one and only ITALIAN STALLION! Seeing him in courtroom was like being a part of a Hollywood movie. Paul was a force of nature---tall, handsome,vocal, funny and smart.
Several years ago there was an "abandoned" brief case left in the Marin County court house. This was after 9-11 so it could have been a bomb. The BOMB SQUAD from the East Bay was called,and hours later the mechanical denotator carried the brief case to the empty parking lot and the authorities blew it up. Come to...

Paul had tremendous influence on me as a football player and person.Paul knew how to reach kids and get the best out them. I could always tell that it wasn't always about winning for Paul. Paul loved socializing and being around the guys. We loved being around Paul even when we made a mistake and he let us know it. I'm thankful I got to talk to Paul last April and introduce him to my daughter. You'll be missed Paul. Go wildcats. Mike

Coach Camera was a fantastic man, coach, mentor, and friend to me over the last ten years. I was so saddened to hear about the passing of a man that was truly larger than life.
I met him for the first time as a shy 14 year old quarterback at Marin Catholic and that first year under his tutelage was a life changing experience. He was everything you could want in a coach. He was tough, but fair, intimidating yet totally disarming and relatable despite a fifty year age difference....
