Paul J. Rizzo

Mr. Rizzo leaves behind a lasting legacy of goodness to people who never met him. I am one of those people. Because of Mr. Rizzo's work to bring IBM to RTP, I became a contractor to IBM. This work has enabled me to support my son and adjunct family members. The moments I shared with my son for being able to be there for him and provide for him have meant the world to me. I am forever deeply, deeply grateful.

I send heartfelt condolences to Mr. Rizzo's family.

I only knew Paul for a few short months, but I was overwhelmed by what a gentleman and kind person he was. The world has lost one of the good ones. My sympathies to family and close friends

One of the finest gentlemen I have ever met. Fortunate to have known him and to call him friend. He touched many lives from all walks of life.

Paul Rizzo was one of a kind! A great boss & a wonderful person. I was fortunate 2B on the search committee that brought him back 2 UNC! He was a great influence on me & I was privileged to have had the chance to work with him.

a true leader in multiple arenas

So sorry to hear the news of Paul's passing. He was loved and admired by those fortunate to have known him.
