Sad day for sure
Remember him and Dave Letterman talking about racing the volvos years back. Paul asking Dave if the wanted him to put a "huffer" on one for him.
He had one of the biggest hearts ever, used his status to make/give millions to charities of the years. Great man!!
Rest in Peace!

Very Giving Man. My daughter met him while she was at his camp. In case you don't know, He built The Hole in Wall Gang Camp for Kids with Cancer in Connecticut. His products "Newman's Own" Paid for all the kids to attend without charge to the families. He always stopped in to sit and talk to the kids and take pictures. Heaven just got a new Saint. My prayers and thoughts to his family. What a MAN.... R.I.P.

Back in the day, we watched him drive a Bob Sharp Datsun 510 at Virginia International Raceway to class victory -- he was a GOOD and clean driver! His non-profit retail grocery products have benefitted thousands of kids. He was pretty good at his day job, too.
