Phil (brother #4) posted this picture of Tom, Jim and Paul (Phil hadn’t arrived yet …). Must have been when I was in the 7th or eighth grade. I have no recollection of this picture and certainly no recollection of Paul’s Commodore outfit. He’d have been five or six years old.
Paul died at the age of 47 after a lifetime of illness. Here’s what I posted 11 years ago. Tom Faranda’s Folly: Paul Faranda, 1958-2005
As my brother Jim said about him, “He lead a noble life.”

You are a sweet man Tom Faranda. Love you guys.
Feel so lucky to have met him. The Faranda men are all so unique…the Faranda women, too.
Amen to both those posts! I just got up from watching TV “God Is Not Dead” He and Paul are sending you a big smile and lots of love today and always..
Wonderful photo. Also read the accompanying link on your brother, Paul. Funny, sweet and very touching post… Thinking of you all; love to all.
a courageous man, a courageous family.
