RNA member Nick Graver writes:
"He joined RNA the same year I did, 1963, and he is member # 3, I am # 4
He was president in 1976.
Paul specialized in Rochester material, Any and All Rochester items: tokens, medals, buttons, you name it, and
he would collect it. His wife, Nancy, (still living) was the dealer of the team, and often set up a table at our annual RNA Rochester Coin Show."

Paul passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his wife and children.
Paul was predeceased by parents August and Lena Kraemer and brother Werner "Zip" Kraemer.
Paul grew up by Ellison Park, and graduated from Brighton High School. He then served in the US Navy during the Korean Conflict. He was a former board member for The Hillside Children's Center. He was an avid coin collector — a member and past president of the RNA. He worked at Eastman Kodak Co. for 33 years.
After they both retired, Paul and Nancy enjoyed many years in DeLand, Fla.
