Not sure what to say?

Paul was a Neuro-Opthalmology Fellow of mine at Wilmer and subsequently a close colleague. He was a superb clinician, a prolific researcher, and a wonderful human being. He will be missed by all who knew him. Carol and I send our condoences to Lyny and the rest of Paul's family.

Paul and Lyny are regular yogis at my weekly yoga class. I have been continually amazed and encouraged by Paul´s very gentle, kind soul. It has been an honor guiding Paul and Lyny in yoga and witnessing the beauty of their love. Sending my condolences to all of his family and friends. We were all lucky to know such a great man.

I knew Paul all my growing days in Highland Falls. His mother was my mother´s best friend. May his memory be a blessing.

My deepest sympathy to Lyny and family
