Paul Nestor was my godfather and a good man. He and my godmother Marilyn have always been great friends of my parents, Valo and Peggy Della Valle, who are heartbroken for Marilyn that Paul has passed. We always had a great time as a big family back in the day.

Capt. Nestor,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and secondly for the citizens of Quincy when you served with the QPD. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
