Kendall Juthe wrote a sympathy message

“I was truly saddened to learn of Paul's passing. Paul was a childhood friend who lived just a short bike ride away down Follen Rd. We attended Lexington schools together from Adams School all the way thru LHS. We would play ball in the large Sullivan yard next to his house. If I remember correctly, his Dad drove a black Boston Edison sedan. His Mom would offer snacks. The only sibling I recall was his sister Carolyn. Paul was quiet, intelligent, and supportive. RIP Paul. My sympathies, Ken Juthe”
