I am so sorry about the loss of your colleague of longstanding. My brother Stephen does a lot of work in the Lindell Building and did in fact know Paul. He called after seeing the broadcast about the tragedy.
Please consider it a tribute to your leadership and the institution you have built, that Paul, whom I never knew, devoted so much of his life to your endeavor.
I hope you will remember, as you grieve, the opportunity you created for this man to do something ennobling. I am certain he found it thus, as do I.
