Title
In Memory of Paul Michael Cianelli
Body
Columbus City Council extends sincere condolences to the family and friends of Paul M. Cianelli on this sorrowful occasion of his passing.
No one exists who cannot teach something to someone. Paul taught us that community is about more than simply where we live - it is about making an effort on another's behalf; about working not just on today, but towards tomorrow.
Because of Paul, we are simply better - as individuals and as a community. We have had the opportunity to see what it is to be a good person; and know what it means to act with purpose. Our lives have not been touched - but changed, by Paul's leadership and vision.
The many years of friendship with Paul, which many of us have enjoyed, has endeared him to us, and his memory will be cherished by us throughout the years of our lives, - while his work and its impression upon this community will endure far into the future.
We mourn the loss, but are so thankful for the life of Paul M. Cianelli.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLUMBUS:
That this Council does hereby pay tribute to the memory of a truly honorable man, Paul Michael Cianelli.
