Paul Mooney
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Paul Mooney!
Such a terrific and blessed talent.
Your comedic wit,
Blended with a razor sharp clarity.
Few could miss,
The seriousness of your intent.
Someone had once declared,
You to be The Godfather of comedy.
Much more that you will remain,
To the many of your fans.
May your soul move on,
Peacefully to the next phase...
Of your spiritual journey!
