I spent a lot of time with Paul in school. He was a smart and very kind guy. A very dedicated runner and athlete. I can never remember him every having a bad day or saying a negative word about anyone.
He was a great person.
I remember working out in his garage. He built this wild abdominal deal where we would hang upside down and so situps. He got is very good shape training with Bill and I for several years.

Paul and I met in 9th grade study hall. We both collected old baseball cards. We frequently traded cards together and organized trade meets in various sections of Levittown.

Paul had a great mind for baseball history and could remember a stat or player at any time. This always helped us evaluate deals.

On the weekends, we both woke up early and ran the flea market routes on our bikes from Oakford, to Bristol, to the drive-in at the mall trying to find old cards.

Paul and I would run-in to each other after high school and still discuss our collections. The great deals we made the ones we screwed up and the ones that got away from us (for me the shoe box of 1955 Bowman TV cards that the lady wanted $15 for and I balked since I only had $20 and didn't want to spend the majority of my money. The box of cards by 1983 was probably worth $5,000. The one trade I really missed).

Those are some great memories!

Paul was one of my best friends in school. I remember going roller skating with him on Saturdays when we were in middle school and riding the Church bus to Sunday school on Sundays. In High school it was weight lifting and he even got me to running with him for a while. Most all of my fond memories from Middle and High school involved Paul. He was a great guy and a good friend and I miss talking with him.
