What can I say about “Doc B”?   There are so many words, but the first word that comes to mind is “extraordinary”

I first met Paul  in November of 1992, when I applied for a job in the office.  Despite not knowing anything about Chiropractic, I was hired!  I remained there for 10 plus years!  During those many years I learned so much from him.   One thing I could never learn, however, was how to keep him on schedule!  He so loved to tell stories and teach while treating his patients.  I remember many times coming up behind him, as he was walking in to the next patient, and saying “you’re way behind, and you better put a wiggle on Doc!”  LOL         Oh,  I could go on and on!!

10 years is a long time, so needless to say, we shared many trying times, happy times, sad times and silly times!  He was always there for me to lend an ear, a hand or a shoulder  

Doc B’s death totally shocked me, as I thought he would live on forever!  I will always remember his love, care and passion for everything he did and everything he gave to family, friends and Patients!

“Thanks for the memories my friend!”  Rest peacefully “Doc B”  until we meet again …… Namaste

Love Sylvia

Jessica and Aaron and family,

 I was sad to hear about Dr. B's passing.  I have many fond memories of him, as I worked as his director of finance for 4 years.  I had been out of the office setting for many years when I applied for the job, but I did have a lot of previous experience in the finance world and Dr. B. decided to take a chance on me and hired me right away.  Well Dr. B - I wouldn't be where I am today if you didn't take that chance, and I thank you for that. I will forever be grateful to you!

I learned so much from him, more than I could ever write on this memorial page.  

One funny memory I would like to share; Dr. B decided to participate in a chiropractic trade show at, I think it was, the Turning Stone Casino in Verona, NY.  He, myself and Sylvia, (our x-ray tech), packed up the car and headed  towards upstate NY.  I was excited to go because I had never been to a casino before, I rarely had an opportunity to get out of town, and I was looking forward to having some fun with Dr. B and Sylvia (they were fund to hang with!)  It was a long ride to the casino but once we got there and checked in Dr. B. asked the concierge where the bar was, because once we put everything in our room we wanted to enjoy a drink to unwind.  Well, no one told Dr. B. the trade show was being held at a "dry" casino!  OMG....we were horrified!  We were told by the staff that we could bring our own liquor into the facility.  As soon as we found out this fact, with lightening speed, we got into the car and headed to the closest liquor store to purchase many bottles of wine to have for the weekend!  It was a fun weekend which I enjoyed very much and will always remember. 

Dr. B. could be a tough cookie, but he also had a heart of gold and I will never forget him.  I always thought he would outlive most of us, so this was a complete shock to me.  Our world has lost a wonderful being, but the afterworld will definitely be a brighter place with him in it.

My sincere condolences to your entire family.  May his soul find rest.

Love and peace to you all,

Lisa Santomango

I was devastated to learn of Dr Bacon’s health issues which caused him to close his practice. I was blessed to be a patient of Dr Bacon’s for 6 years. He helped me in so many ways and taught me all along the way “why” he was doing what he was. He was kind and passionate and strong and committed. He cared for everyone the same way, and was genuinely concerned about your health and well-being.  He greeted you with a smile and left you feeling cared for with deep concern.  I hope he is at peace and watching over all of us to be sure we are doing our exercises!  He was one of a kind and made this world a better place - I miss him and think of him often.
