I had the pleasure and honor of serving with Paul for over twenty years. We had some great times at Ft. Drum and he was missed when he retired. Living up north, I didn't find out about his passing until today. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. Every year I display the lovely Xmas ornaments his wife made. MSGT (Ret) Nancy Sheehan

Oh will I miss my dad! Everytime I come to New Hampshire I will feel like I will be stopping to see my dad, see his smiling face, and hearing his laugh. He was always there, whether I had a crisis or just stopping for dinner. There was always enough for 8 people when he made his dinners. I will miss you Dad, the visits, the time you gave me. Be happy and be at peace. I will love you always.

Paul has been my friend since I was 17 years old when we met in college. He has been a wonderful friend and a wonderful father to our three children throughout all of these years, even though we married when we were too young. I know he is home with our Father now and has no pain and is happy. Many condolences to his wife, Lucy, and our three wonderful children and eight grandchildren.

Hi Buddy !!! I miss you terribly but know that your struggle is over!! You were very laid back but would speak your mind if you needed to!! You loved your children and grandchildren very much !! You also had time to spend @ camp with your nephews and brother in Stark. You were definitely proud of being retired from the military!! You had Lee Greenwoods CD in your car with "God Bless The USA" on it!! The Red Sox were your passion!! Those first few phone calls you made to me were mainly to talk about the games ! From our first date @ The Nubble to our last trip @ Cooperstown, NY life with you was fun. You showed me what a soulmate was !! I had five great years with you and I hope that they have steamers, lobsters and fried clams in heaven. Love always, Lucy

My brother, Bill Mac Kenzie, and I have very fond memories of being students at Walker School in the late 1970's and early 1980's with Mr. Twombly at the helm. We are both good, productive and caring citizens today in part because of the social and academic standards that Mr. Twombly taught by example. We are praying for his loved ones during this difficult time of loss.
With sympathy.

Dad was a wonderful father. He was always there for me in good times and bad. I would not be the person I am today without him. I have so many wonderful memories of dad throughout my life, too many to list, but each one very special to me. I will carry his love with me each and every day! He will be dearly missed.

Dad,
You fought harder than any of us thought you could. I am so grateful for the extra time you gave us and those days I was able to spend with you. Selfishly I wish you were still here but I am so happy you are finally at peace.
Love,
Brian
