Family and friends filled the Shrine of the Three Hearts church at Vaoala last Thursday to farewell well-known businessman Norman Samuel Paul in a requiem mass where Archbishop Alapati Lui Mataeliga was the principal celebrant.
The Head of State, Tui Atua Tupua Tamasese Efi and Her Highness Filifilia, with Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sa’ilele Malielegaoi and Cabinet members attended.
Not always in the best of moods, his children remember Mr. Paul for his love and the times he scolded them, his friends and colleagues for his company and charity and loyalty – and strong attachment to his Catholic Church.
