Paul Mayo killed at home
 
Paul Mayo was killed yesterday while cutting down trees at his Pa. home.
Paul was past div.1 stk champ and ran div.3 when he lived in Colunbus in the 70's.
His sister-in-law told me he had cut down 2 trees ,but the 3nd fell and hit him in the head.
His wife found him when she returned from town.....
we had just talked last month and were friends for a long time..

Had the privelege to speak with Mr. Mayo a couple years back. He was one of those that played major influence on my class racing interest. This has been the darkest autumn I can remember. The loss of: Wally, my dad, my neighbors dad, now Paul, all within a couple weeks.:(

I remember tearing down at Pauls Trans shop in Reynolds ohio with my Vette. Nice guy. My thoughts are with the family. Wasnt it Paul who ran George Williams for SportsNational Stock final in Bowling Green?
