I knew Paul from Mr. Goodheart's history class. The class was totally out of control. Paul sat behind me (at least on days when we had a test). In the middle of one test, Paul said to me, " Koster, who painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel?" In typical 9th grade fashion, I replied "Michelangelo, you idiot." The next day we got our papers back and Paul said "Koster boy, you screwed me! You gave me the wrong answer!". I said, "What do you mean? I got it right".
Turns out, Paul had written just "Angelo". In fairness to Paul, I had written "Michael Angelo". Guess I got credit for being close.
Paul was a genuine nice guy and a friend to everyone. If leaving behind a life of friendships, laughs, and goodwill shared with everyone counts for anything, Paul gets credit for more than being close. He goes to the head of the class. I'm proud I knew him. Thank you for your friendship, Paul. God bless.
Hey Paul exclamation hope things are going well in California. I'm still in Pittsford. We used to clown around quite a bit together. I think we even camped out one night at Canandaigua lake. Take it easy. Bob Koster
