CARR, PAUL, 58 - of Northfield, died suddenly and un-expectedly while on duty serving with the Atlantic City Fire Department. He was born in Atlantic City in 1947 and graduated Atlantic City High School in 1965. Paul worked on the Atlantic City Beach Patrol from 1967 to 1973 and was a champion rower and swimmer. He then went on to proudly serve with the Atlantic City Fire Department in 1973 to present. In the 70's he owned and operated Artman's Health Foods. Throughout Paul's young and adult life he risked his own personal safety on many occasions to save others and was awarded many citations. Paul was a true hero. Paul was a premier athlete who ran, rowed, swam, boxed, weight lifted, played basketball and was never beaten in arm wrestling. Paul was also a gentle soul, loved by everyone. His cross section of friends ranged from the guy on the street to the head of corporations and of course his firefighter, police and lifeguard buddies. Paul was a spiritual family man who helped everyone and believed in and taught transcendental meditation. He spent time with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Paul loved researching and telling the history of Atlantic City. He is predeceased by his parents, "Millie" and Albert, his sister Carole and brother in law, Bill Lehto.
