Gloria and I would like to offer our condolences to Gloria and Larry and family. Its been a enjoyable time being in Paul's presence these past twenty years, hearing his words of wisdom and listening to his wonderful sense of humor. He was a true Patriot and took his membership in Camp 211, POS of A, Mohnton very seriously. We all will miss him, especially at the events of the Camp he enjoyed very much.
