I first met Paul over thirty years ago on the intramural fields at Yale University where he occasionally worked as a tackle football official. I was a newcomer to the New Haven area and from the first time I met him he was friendly, considerate and polite. Over the years we had the opportunity to work several youth and scholastic games together and he always made those games interesting and fun. He was a true gentleman and one heck of a nice guy. My deepest condolences to his family. Ed Mockus
