Some use their celebrity as a vehicle to fame. PN used his to benefit us all. His environmental stances and non-profit food ventures made you proud to be a fan of his. RIP Luke......there was no "failure to communicate" in your life.

Very nice post docicu3, well said. Paul recently and quietly turned over the entire value of his ownership in Newman's Own to charity, $120 million! He was a class act, all the way around. Condolences to his lovely wife Joanne Woodward, and his children. He will be missed, RIP.
