Maggie, I'm so sorry I missed notice of the memorial service at College Church yesterday! Paul and I date back to the 50's when he was with His magazine and I was with Christian Life and we had much to share. I remember him telling about hoping to meet the neighbors when you moved to Downers Grove. It didn't happen until you realized you had a cat and they were bird watchers! Much love and my prayers to you and yours.

Dear Fromer family,

I remember Paul with admiration and with fondness: plaid sports coat, horn rimmed glasses, chocolate-covered cherries at Christmastime, prophetic voice. I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Our prayers are with all of you.
