Tom (Benny), It was with great sadness that I received a telephone call this morning from Mike M. informing me of the passing of Paula. I have many very fond memories of both you and Paula back in the days of old in Framingham. I know it seems as though that was a lifetime ago now, that Paula brought so many good and fun memories to the many parties and gatherings that were once a part of all of our lives. Her laughter and Joy was contagious to all. I have thought of her every time I look at the beautiful gray stuffed elephant she made (sewed) for Jennifer when she was born.I have often told Jennifer the stories of the wonderful woman that made that cute little elephant just for her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow.
