I found the link for his obituary on the funeral home website.

Sorry to ask this and it may have been discussed above, but what exactly happened to Paul?
WWPT? (what would Paul think? 
) about the current state of the snowbound T?
) about the current state of the snowbound T?You know? I can't think if he'd be laughing from the clouds or spinning in his grave... I tend to like the former better though.

I updated Paul's signature in his profile to reflect his passing. It had not occurred to me before to do that.
Next stop, Willoughby

He also researched the role the police played in dealing with many events where public safety was threatened. He is missed, even if he did usurp my original Quiz thread!

The next stop is Washington. Change for Forest Hills Trains on the Winter St. Platform, and Everett Trains on the Summer St. Platform. This is an Ashmont train, change for Braintree at Columbia.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful at all, as I can see Mr. Joyce had a significant impact on MBTA culture/discussions...with that said, this thread has been a "sticky" for 3 years now. Will it be cataloged with the other non-sticky threads anytime soon?
At this rate, when Mr. Bradley Clarke's time is among us, I expect a 10-year "sticky" for his contributions.
