Mrs Comeau.
Sorry to find out about Paul's passing. I will pray for him and your family. I found his obituary while searching for my BCHS Class of 1957 classmates for a possible reunion. We will remember him and you at our reunion.
Sincerely,
Denis Coffey, Portsmouth, RI

To the Comeau Family. I grieve with you on your loss. Paul was my teacher at Curley High and my Football Coach. I was class of '68. I learned a lot from Paul. He introduced me to the love of literature and writing. I found my vocation in life as a screenwriter. I saw Paul several times later in life. When I heard of his passing this past weekend my heart grew very heavy at this loss. He was a man who I admired and felt a strong kinder to. I will miss my teacher, my coach and most of all my friend.
