Paul Henry LaValley

Sorry to hear this. I was Paul's karate sensei when I was a student at UMASS Amherst in the 70's. My condolences to the family. "Chito"

I was a waiter at a burger bar, and he and Sami became regulars, two of my favorite customers. I eventually got to spend some time with them apart from work, taking in one of his live concert performances in a Westfield senior center, and we all even went out to eat at EB's once. My favorite memories with him are little almost trivial ones, like how we would always compare our Vape mods and our juice du jour, or how when he ordered his burger with jalapeños, he always wrote the number four...

We met at 15 and started a band...and man could you play. We never stopped! If the wild bird could speak, he'd tell of the places you've been.. and now you've spread your wings to the wind! I'll miss you! Pete Stone

God bless you, Paul. You brought joy to many with your talent. Rest in peace.

Sami, I am so sorry on the passing of Paul. He was a wonderful musician and a good friend. I always enjoyed his music with Paul and Paul as the interlude ,on one occasion, Paul sat in ,to help me out when my Sax Player was sick, he was just an amazing musician and I will miss him. May he rest in peace

Dear Sandi and the LaValley family, Paul and I had the pleasure of playing in the Van Sickle Jr. High Band many years ago. He was then a great saxophonist. Rest In Peace Paul.

RIP My Friend

I am going to miss you my friend. RIP!!!

To Paul´s family So sorry for your loss. I didn´t know Paul well but he was well known in music circles I enjoyed seeing his band play several times in the sixties. Russ Omer
