About the Mission:
We have been requested by the family of Paul Gundrum to participate in his military honors funeral services. Paul “Poppie” Gundrum died suddenly on his 91st birthday, August 17, 2022.
From a one-room schoolhouse in Lishakill to graduating from Nott Terrace High School in 1948, Paul was a gentleman above all else. He was an offset printer his entire life from his career at ALCO, to being drafted in the Army and serving in Japan for two years during the Korean Conflict, to returning to ALCO. He then went on to a successful career in Saratoga County as an offset printer.
