Paul P. Poth

So hurt to read of Paul's passing in a Nichols publication that arrived yesterday.
What a smart, driven, and caring guy he was. They don't come any brighter.
I really enjoyed working with Paul and Kristen a few years back.
What a loss to his family, friends, and
Massachusetts.

Kristen: I was a fellow ND law student with Paul in London and am also from Buffalo. Paul and I loved to talk about Buffalo food, sports, etc. What I remember most about him was his good humor and upbeat personality. He brightened every room he entered and will be missed.

To the Poth family –

My deepest sympathies for your loss. I attended law school with Paul. No one was better at telling a story, and few had his compassion or zest for life. He was a good and cherished friend, and all were better for knowing him.

I am so sorry for your loss and the community's loss of such a wonderful person. I met Paul during the first week of school at BC. I too am from Buffalo and was so happy to meet someone from "home." He was one of the funniest people I have had the privilege of knowing. I remember his smiles, his laughter and his kindness. I am keeping you all in my prayers during this most difficult and sad time. I am not able to attend the memorial in October but my thoughts will be there. God bless you all.

Kristen and family-
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love, Suzanne Palma Baratta, and family
Ocala, Florida

Kristen, Luca and family,
My deepest sympathy on your loss. I worked with Paul at the BMC and remember him fondly. He was a talented ADA who was well liked and respected. I will remember his smile and his sense of humor.....and I will always remember his bow ties!!
Take care,

I am very sorry for your loss. I did not know Paul well, but worked with him on a matter briefly at Mintz Levin. Though our interaction was brief, he immediately struck me as a genuinely good, funny person, on top of his obvious legal skills. That combination is all too rare.

I had the pleasure of working with Paul at the District Attorney's Office when he was just beginning his career. A most loving, generous and passionate person.God Bless you and your family at this very sad time.

Peter and Mary, I read today's Boston Globe article about Peter, and as I read it, I thought, "is this the little kid who was on the Park Club swim team with my little brother Tommy and my sister Suzanne White? Is this the son of Mr. Poth who was at Peat Marwick? As I read further I realized that it was indeed Paul. My heart breaks for you, please know that people from way back when are remembering him as such a great kid, and send you our deepest sympathies. I will never forget him...
