Paul was a true mentor to me early in my banking career at Northeast Savings Bank and was instrumental in helping my family purchase our first home. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I can honestly say that I am who I am today because of this wonderful man. He was my first boss in the "real" world and I learned and grew so much from him. I am truly sorry for your loss. He was loved and will be missed by many.

Paul was my mentor for many years at Northeast Savings. We had a special bond as my husband works at BC. I will always remember that you could go anywhere with Paul and he always knew someone.

I had the pleasure of having Paul as a teacher for an evening Banking class several years ago. He was very informative and motivational.
