Paul Raynault: 1940 - 2008


It is with great sadness that this blog mourns the passing of Paul Raynault, Ethical Culture member of 35 years, who passed away on Monday. Read his obituaries in both the Bergen Record and his beloved Student World Assembly, of which he was the founder.

Paul was a frequent attendee at Ethical Culture events, often hosted by he and wife Shelley in their home. Many is the hors doeuvre that Paul saved from obscurity by grabbing an abandoned tray and offering them to party guests. Paul would do this both at his own parties and those of his friends; wherever, it seemed, hors doeuvres were languishing. This was but one way, if perhaps the humblest, in which Paul served those both near and far to him.

You are missed.
