    My sincere condolences to the family. I enjoyed his unique wit and personality from early in my career at DeNardo & McFarland weather services and from the conversations we had after I had left. He will always be remembered fondly.

    To Paul and Family - My deepest condolences on the loss of your father. He was a mentor, co-worker and friend to me from our days at the former McFarland Weather Services. To this day, I still smile about a quote or joke that he made. He was a wonderful guy and will be missed.
