On behalf of my mother Loretta who worked the front desk at the Hanover Tennis Club and myself who grew up playing there and in Scituate, I'll always remember you with that deep, dark tan and dark curly hair, and always a big grin. That was a very nice tribute to a wonderful guy.

It has been a year of telling Paul Medici stories over and over... With all the sadness and grief over the loss of this legendary human being, there has also been a lot of laughing when thinking about him, especially the way he use to laugh and slap his thigh! Never thought I could miss a friend so much. What a generous person. Still giving with his memories and inspiration......

To Paul's family, friends and relatives:

My deepest condolences on Paul's passing. Please take comfort in the millions of wonderful memories you certainly have of Paul.

I met Paul as a vendor to Fidelity. The vendor/customer relationship is often tenuous, and sometimes even challenging. My experience with Paul was genuine, warm and collaborative. Paul proved to be a fabulous human being, who provided tremendous advice and partnership, while I navigated the sheer mass of Fidelity. It has been 14 years since we dealt with one and other, but I remember the interactions vividly. The world needs more Paul Medici's.

May he rest in peace.

Paul was the best boss I ever had. Always positive and upbeat. You walk into his office and he would break into that big grin and immediately share a story or make a joke. A very generous, loving person. Last time I saw him, a bunch of us got together for a lunch in Raleigh, I gave him a big fat kiss on the side of his face. He laughed! Paul believed in being an innovator, not an imitator. Paul was such a wonderful person, genuine and kind. The world is a much poorer place with him. I hope he can play football up in Heaven. He'd like that.

I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Paul through my oldest and dear friend Debbie.He was everything everyone is saying and more. A fond memory I will share is when I stayed up in New Hampshire one weekend visiting Debbie. At one point during the night, Paul and I sat in the living room watching college football. I got to know about his passion for the sport that night.He will be missed by so many. God bless the Medici family.

August 23, 2019

Paul was the best boss I ever had. Very kind, very energetic. Always positive. Almost every time you walked up to talk to him he would break into the big grin. The World is a poorer place without him for sure.

A father figure, a friend, a mentor; Paul had many roles and every role he took as serious as the next! You take millions of this same guy and spread him around the world and that's what God intended the world to model after and with that said, I can understand why God wanted Paul with him! Deepest condolences to the world that knew Paul. Already, you are truly missed my friend.

To the entire Medici family.One of the best Atheletes to ever come out of South Shore.,He tan like a deer, had glue Hands,and hit a ball a mile. MYou would not know that coming from his mouth. Modest,always happy, a team player willing to help everyone. He had many athletic awards,like PATRIOT LEDGER PLAYER OF THE WEEK IN 1967. Paul was an even better person, God bless your family.

My deepest sympathies to you Debbie and your family. I knew Paul through my brother, who were great friends for many years. He was such a nice, kind, thoughtful and generous guy, whom I always enjoyed being in his company when he would visit- - great memories. How great would the world be if there were more Paul's in it! God has surely gained a rose in heaven. Rest In Peace Paul, you will be missed.

Paul was truly a great guy and was a lot of fun to be around. I cant remember ever having a better neighbor. He was very gracious, loving and very outgoing. Heaven truly got a good soul. I pray that God will have mercy on your soul and that he lift the burden of pain from the hearts of your loved ones. Until me meet again my friend, God Bless and keep you.

Your Friend,

Deepest sympathies to the Medici family. When I think of Paul, I think of teamwork. He was so enthusiastic about getting his employees together, telling stories, and inspiring. I am thankful to Paul, as he got me started in systems support at Fidelity many years ago. Paul was one of the most generous people I have met and he believed in me- for that I am forever grateful. Rest In Peace. Jennifer Cronin Tirrell

Paul was the kind of man who they built statues of in ancient Rome. In today's world we would make it of him in a football uniform and inscribe the fact that he scored four touchdowns in one game just like the great "Al Bundy", something he always joked about. What a generous person he was!

James Medeiros

August 20, 2019

I had the pleasure of working with Paul at Fidelity. He was one of the finest persons I ever met...so generous and kind, always with a smile. Once met, he was one of those people you could never forget. Jim and Joan Medeiros send deepest sympathies to his very extensive family, and in particular his wife Debbie whom we had met socially and to his son Jeff with whom I had worked. Rest In Peace, Paul; You are the best! Jim and Joan Medeiros
