Paul and the lovely Joan were among the first people to make us feel welcomed to the neighborhood in Princeton Commons. Our first party, we walked in and realized there was no room at any of the tables. Joan came and got us and Paul found chairs. From then on we often sat with them, hearing stories of their interesting lives and Paul dancing up a storm with my wife. When I had knee surgery, he graciously offered me his scrapbooks of his travel and skiing to remind me I would be mobile again. We often talked when he was out walking. A full life lived and he will be missed. Our sympathy to all of you. Mary Hutchison and Rosemary Lillis
