Linda, I just got an E'mail from Eddie Kitchen re: Paul's passing. I hope it was peaceful; had no idea he was ill. He was a special man; he was the catalyst in giving my career in Data Processing some needed direction by getting me into IBM schools for Automated Teller programming while there at Landmark. And I greatly enjoyed our times on the softball field with him and Fred Bruce. We actually talked on the phone a couple times after I was laid off in 1993, as I considered returning to South Fla. Linda, take care, celebrate your wonderful man's life, and if there's anything I can do, please let me know.

Linda,
Words cannot express the deep loss felt by Paul's passing. I was only in my early 20's when I began working for him and he was an incredible person to know and learn from. The entire LDSC team was like a second family to me and I cherish the memories of those times. I will hold you and your family in my thoughts at this difficult time. Love and peace to you and your family.

All my best,
Kathy

Linda,
I would like to express my deepest sympathy. I didn't even know Paul was ill. Paul was the best and favorite boss I ever had. He guided and advised me in my career in I.T. and I'll never forget our common Polish heritage. May God be with you and your family always.
