Mr. Alvey was my teacher while I attended Sullivan high school in the junior high program. He was one of the nicest, most empathetic men I have ever met. Not only was Paul a great friend to my mother for more than 20 years but he also was always willing to help me grow while at Sullivan. Paul affected my life by helping me grow into the person I am today during those pivotal years at Sullivan. Paul, I know my mom will miss you very much and so will I.

It was my pleasure to know and teach with Paul at Sullivan. my sincere sympathy to his family that was his life.
