I´m so sorry to hear of Paul´s passing. I hadn´t seen nor heard from him in about 3 and a half decades, but the smile in the picture took me in the way-back machine to 8th grade football practice where "Pick" taught me what a stinger in the shoulder is. Always a great friend and listener. Great advice-we were the same age but he always seemed so wise. And a literal Xerox copy of his amazing dad. A loss to the world at large. Paul will be greatly missed.
