Paul died June 7, 1997, at Piedmont [N.C.] Medical Center. He was 75.

A native of Tarrytown, N.Y., he prepared at Repton and Rugby in England. During WWII, Paul served with the Air Force in the Pacific theater; he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

Paul's entire business career encompassed many years outside the continental U.S. with CPC Intl., in such places as Europe, Cuba, and Japan. Outside office and home, Paul was active in the Lions Club and The Rams, as well as raising funds for Hospice.

He is survived by his wife, Barbara; one son, Paul C. III; two daughters, Elizabeth Debry Lorenzo and Belinda Debry Oxley; and five grandchildren. To the entire family, we offer our deepest and most heartfelt condolences.
