Paul L. R. Schwartz

aka: Paul Schwartz

Friend

Childhood friend of Shep's, first name revealed 4-26-63 show and mentioned again on the 1-6-65 show. According to Shep's book, "In God We Trust - All Others Pay Cash" "I turned back to Flick who was checking the cash register. 'Too bad Schwartz couldn't have been here,' I said. Flick grunted, busy with his change counting. We both knew that Schwartz had been shot down over Italy. They never found him." A search of the National WWII Memorial website for the name Paul Schwartz of Hammond, Indiana brings up an Honoree Page by his brother Douglas. [Thanks to Gary White for the info]

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
