What makes this event so special is that Paul was a past President of the Bristol Rotary Club in 2000/2001, and has decided to rejoin the Club while having previously spent 20 years as a Rotarian. And, the ties are deeper. Bruce Cox, our President-elect for the next fiscal year, was his sponsor when Paul first joined Rotary in 1992.
Paul is currently retired, but prior to his retirement, he was President and Owner of Diversified Capital Corp in Barrington for 20 years. Prior, from 1978 to 1981, he was Chief Operating Officer of UVEX Winter Optical in Smithfield, RI.
Paul was born in Toronto, Canada and has been in Rhode Island for 47 years. He is married and has 3 children. Welcome back, Paul!
