We loved Paul and Crickett as they would visit Naples, Fl years back. A wonderful couple. They took good care of each other especially when it was needed.

Dear Cricket and the entire family -- You know how Mac and I feel about Paul. He will always be in out thoughts and prayers. He and I have been close for so many years and I was so proud when he told me I was like a sister. I had to then tell him I always thought of him as a very favorite cousin, but now had to upgrade him to "brother status". We had so much fun over the years and he used to tease me so much. I'll never forget when he told the Priest at CCD that I was considering going into the convent because I had had my hair cut short. From then on Father told me he was praying for my vocation every time we met! Many times Paul would come to our house just to sit and talk and it made me feel good to know he knew I would keep his confidences. My Mother always said Paul could talk a dog off a meat wagon -- how true! Mac and I enjoyed the times we spent with you and Paul, whether playing golf or just visiting. You know how much we love you and will keep you in our prayers as well. With deepest sympathy to the rest of the family. Love, Mac and Marie

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of Paul. We shared many great times together in high school (Class of 1950). Paul will always be remembered for his intelligence, his wit, and his charisma -- he was a class act and he will be missed.

Paul-my colleague as a law student and lawyer and my friend for 50 years-will be sorely missed. His mighty sense of humor was contagious. It was once said of his skill at advocacy, "He could coax a herring from a cat." He leaves us with priceless memories.

I have such fond memories of meeting Paul when we wanted a new puppy. He was so excitied about the birth of the new litter and proud of naming them with the Harry Potter theme. He was in the process of reading all the books. I will never forget those moments. We are proud we kept the name Quidditch and know he had a part in that. You are in our prayers.
