After 40 years, Paul was like part of the family. He was always available with answers to our ignorant questions. Not only will we miss his timely services, but I'll miss our annual social and business get togethers at Dover Straits.
Due to health issues I won't be able to make it to the Wake, but my thoughts and prayers will be with the family.
Rest in Peace dear Friend! Charles (Chuck) Doty
