son, AICC Chairman in 2011-2012 when he was President and CEO of Mid-Atlantic Packaging in Montgomeryville, Pa., said simply, “We have lost a treasure.” Paul’s influence and persona resonates with those whose history with AICC is far shorter. Said AICC General Counsel David Goch, who succeeded Paul on his retire- ment in 2014, “Despite his unmatched tenure as AICC’s General Counsel, he willingly, with no hesitation, entrusted his ‘baby’ to me.” AICC President Mike D’Angelo, said, “For me, an AICC meeting didn’t truly start until Paul spoke. He had the most wonderful voice. “Gentle Steel” is how I referred to it then and how I recall it now. It was one of those things that made AICC, well, AICC.” Paul is also remembered along with Dick Troll, a found- er, past president and the first executive director of AICC,
instrumental in the devel- opment of an industry-wide antitrust education program following. He recognized the contri- bution of the industry’s sup- pliers and urged AICC into profitable partnerships in in- dustry trade and machinery shows where suppliers and

members could come together. AICC’s current, longtime partnership with TAPPI in our jointly owned SuperCorrEx- po franchise is one of the fruits of his work. He also worked with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Canadian Bu-
reau of Competition to lay the groundwork for our FirstPak program. For all he did for AICC, he was named into the Association’s Hall of Fame in 1991. Outside his service to AICC, he also served as General Counsel for the Telecom- munications Industry Association (TIA), and he authored legal treatises on international trade. He was also a scholar of Judaic law, and authored “The Siddur Companion,” a book to help others of faith to better under- stand the prayers of the Jewish people. Paul was preceded in death by his wife, Michele, in March of 2019, and is survived by three daughters: Deborah S. Vishny; Renana A. Friedman and Miriam L. Vishny; and four grandchildren.
