Not sure what to say?

Went to VI High School and Siena College with Paul. He was a very special guy-friendly, supportive, kind, and a person you never forget. He should have been a Franciscan monk or priest. He was that dedicated and kind to all and always seeking to bring the best out in people. Rest well in the arms of the Lord, Paul. At 86, I expect to see you soon. RIP

My favorite English teacher at Tamarac HS. He was open-minded, fair, compassionate, and understanding with a great sense of humor. I remember doing an oral report once on Bob Dylan for his class. Always a cool person who really cared about his students' learning and growth. My sincerest sympathies to his family.

One of my favorite high school teachers, and in letter years, a mentor in my early teaching years. Positive. Joyful. Kind and caring. Margy Quinlan Jarem

Family of Paul Healy, Years after I supposedly came in at 2nd place in the public speaking contest at LaSalle Institute, Paul told me the truth. I won, but my family did not contribute as much as the actual 2nd place. Thanks to Paul, the truth lived on. He was a great teacher and a great friend, a Watervliet kinda guy! Blessings and peace to his family. Mike Asbury, LaSalle Institute, Class of 1966

We used to affectionately call our teacher "Father Healey." Paul was very encouraging. think he influenced my writing style, though writing is just a hobby of mine. Rest in peace, Father.
