My brother Paul and I share the same birthdate 4 years apart. I was going through some photos that I had, and found this one, about 1979. We were both sophomores (college and high school), and that's the way it was. Happy Birthday Paul.

Posted on "X" today. Bob Lonsberry is a local radio talkshow host in Rochester and Syracuse. I just thought it was nice of him to take the time to give Paul the recognition. My reply to him...

10/31/23: Hello everyone. I would like to thank the Perinton Concert Band for the great tribute in music to Paul last Friday night. My sister and I were in attendance, and it was great to hear the band, see friends, and remember.
The purpose for my post today is to reach out to everyone and ask if anyone has a horn that was left with Paul in the Sping of 2023, and you think that it might still be around. I have a couple of horns and horns in cases that have not been placed back with any owners.
If you think that might be you, please direct message me here, and let's see if I can help out. I am also going to return to his paperwork this week, and make a few followup calls.
Thank you,
Phil Abel

Many people expressed their wished to be in Rochester for Paul last weekend. Tom Bruce at the Bruce Theater and Performing Arts Academy at 75 Stutson Street taped the entire service, and we have it here. You can download it (15 minutes), and share the day we all had. Thank you, Tom.
