Paul Trueblood

I.remember when Paul played at Unity services for Eric Butterworth at Avery Fisher Hall. He accompanied Olga Butterworth in meditations and played for guest performers, many of whom lit up our Broadway stages. He was a brilliant pianist, and I was fortunate to have heard him for so many Sundays in the '90's.

Memories of Paul
It is so difficult to write about someone whom you have known for most of your professional years. I'd come for a coaching session with Paul and no matter how I sounded Paul would always exclaim, “You sound really great. What have you been doing?” Perhaps if you don't know about “actors who sing” you don't know how meaningful that comment was. It was a gift. Whereas the musical comedy world scoffed at the “actor who sang” Paul celebrated us and it made it possible...

I will remember Paul not only for his musical artistry and talents, but also as a friend and a fun person to be with.

Rosann: Please accept my prayerful sympathies. The world is left better through Paul's artistry. He animated everywhere he went -- and he went far. God rest his soul on a brighter dawn. Bill Burleigh

I was in Paul's class at Memorial High School. He was always friendly with everyone and well liked by everyone in his class. Paul will truly be missed, but his contributions to the arts will always be with us. His work will live on and be remembered by all of us. You have my prayers and sympathy.
