Capeeee. Without Paul I would have likely dropped out of Bentley. He would drag me to the Library every night to study and then we'd drag each other to the Pub. Bertha so sorry for your loss. Paul was always so upbeat and positive. Shidoobee as he would say...he will be missed.

To Auntie Bertha: I am so sorry for the loss of Paul. I remember when my son Leo was born and he was just one month old and Andy, I and Leo came to your house in Westwood and had a great time. Uncle Nick was so funny. You always made us feel welcome and loved. Andy loved you and Uncle and of course his cousins. May Paul send his love and watch over you and your beautiful family. I know he will be missed. I love you......

Growing up on Burgess Ave. I spent many afternoons playing baseball or football on the field behind your house. I remember Paul was always in the neighborhood, although I didn't know him well other than he was Jackie and Sebby's younger brother. I recall he seemed to be a quiet kid who went his own way and always seemed at peace with himself. Mrs. Cappello, my mother spoke of you many times, always with kind words. Had she still been alive I know she would come to see you just to give you a hug, listen to you talk about your son and let you know there are neighbors from long ago that still remember and care about you. On her behalf I want to express our deepest condolences to the entire Cappello family.
