My dear friend of many years passed away today after a long physical battle. I will remember the good times like this day at Navy Pier in Chicago in 2002. Paul is second from the left and always reminded me that it was acceptable to act 12 at any physical age in life! Please keep his partner, Bob, and our Ohio friends in your thoughts during this most difficult time. Paul had a great run and I'm drinking a vodka and water tonight in his honor. Cheers to Paul - you are free friend!LAMBERT Paul E. Lambert, age 73, died at home on January 31, 2008. The son of the late Eugene and Iola Lambert of Grove City, Paul attended the Ohio State University, was posted in Germany as a member of the United States Army, and went on to 36 years of service with Columbus & Southern Electric/AEP. Paul is survived by his daughter, Christy and her husband, Mark Asbach, West Chester; his partner of four decades, Bob Jackson; his brothers, Gerald (Teri) of Orient and Larry of Columbus; his sister, Beverly Lambert of Grove City; special family friend, Elinor Madory; and his beloved companions, Rambo and Prissi. A member of the German Village Society and the Buckeye Boosters, Paul leaves a very wide circle of loving friends who cheered the OSU Buckeyes and the Grove City Greyhounds with him, and who will treasure always the memories of great times, wonderful parties, and remarkable friendships.
