Not sure what to say?

Wayne Cunningham I met Paul in school many years ago. He was a great athlete and a better person. He was one of my coaches while I was president of Westfield Youth Hockey in the 90's. He did a great job with the kids. Always willing to help. I just found out about his passing and I am so sorry. This was a really good guy. He will be missed by many.

GOOD TIMES AT THE STAR,LILLY AND SCHOOL.GOING TO MISS U BIG GUY..ANDY &DEB..

Paul was a classmate of mine. I then hired him at American Hardware/ServiStar. He was a great guy and I enjoyed his friendship. We stayed in touch through FB recently and talked on the phone just a bit. My sincerest condolences to all his family. I just found out today 8/19/24 about his Promotion to Glory. Ray did an amazing job on YouTube. RIP my friend. Patti Weinle Morris

My condolences to the family and friends of Paul. I just found out about Paul's passing, I was in Canada and did not hear about it until I saw the tribute which is beautiful and fitting. I became friends with Paul in the mid 80s ,road bikes with him and played softball for the nook together. We became good friends and I will always be honored he considered me his friend. Paul will be sadly missed.

Paul and I met in the 7th grade and immediately became good friends. We shared many great memories throughout junior and senior high school with sports; football and hockey as well as our mutual love for music and even talked about wanting to go to Woodstock. We were able to reconnect a few years ago and re-live some of those fond memories. You'll be missed old friend.

I met Paul in Sept. of 1957 8n kindergarten at Abner Gibbs. We were lifelong friends, even though our paths drifted apart. Invariably they crossed again at some point in time. Paul was fiercely loyal, and was someone you wanted on and by your side. I will miss him terribly.

Ray & Paula, So sorry to hear of Paul's passing. Servistar, Little League, hockey, and many many good times back in the day. Paul taught me so much about coaching and umpiring. Great man, great friend and the smile. He left us all with so much to cherish. Rest in peace my friend.

I had the pleasure of working with Paul at Home Depot for over 15 years. Let's say Paul definitely had a great presence. His great humor, his great laugh, his pony tail..lol. I knew Paul from his umpiring days as well when my son was young playing Westfield little league. Always fair and knew how to handle those parents that might voice their "frustrations" over a call. Paul was a good man and will be missed. He left his mark on many. My condolences to his family and to his many friends.

My first adult job was in 2008. I started at the Home Depot. He was in receiving and would take me under his wing and show me what to do and not to do in every situation. We had a little bit of rivalry as he was a giant Red Sox fan and I was a giant Rays fan. He would always ask how my team was doing as they had lost to the Red Sox the day before. No matter what job I did after that he would always come and check on me. Make sure I was doing what I was supposed to. He was definitely a huge...
