Dear Munro Family, So sorry that I missed Pauls wake. My sincere sympathy to all of you. I thought I might share a little history with you. I met Paul almost 50 years ago. My mother and I took golf lessons from Paul and Bob Barclay at the Y.M.C.A. in Lynn. A couple of years later we bumped into each other and started dating. He was always such a good sport and, of course, dressed to the nines.We played a few rounds of golf together,and had a few rounds(at clubs) together. through the years he would invite my husband and I to play at Unicorn.Ever the perfect host.Always greeting us with open arms.H e was my friend for almost 50 years. I will miss bumping into him and I will also miss his laugh.I am sorry for your loss. With Deepest Sympathy, Donna Anderson
