Laura and the Gambardella family, Laurel & I were saddened to hear of Pauls passing. His parents and my parents were good friends when we all lived in New Haven. We saw each other often. His grandmother, Josie baby sat for us kids. When I was in NBHS I worked part time at TPA with Paul, and every once in a while we would run into each other at Supreme Seafood. May he rest in peace.
