"He was dedicated to giving back to those less fortunate,
and with each child we see, we honor his spirit and vision.
Undoubtedly he has touched millions of lives."
Kyle Petty
co-founder of the Victory Junction Gang Camp

Paul's craft was acting. His passion was racing. His love was his family and friends. And his heart and soul were dedicated to helping make the world a better place for all. Paul had an abiding belief in the role that luck plays in one's life, and its randomness. He was quick to acknowledge the good fortune he had in his own life, beginning with being born in America, and was acutely aware of how unlucky so many others were. True to his character, he quietly devoted himself to helping offset this imbalance. An exceptional example is the legacy of Newman's Own. What started as something of a joke in the basement of his home, turned into a highly-respected, multi-million-dollar-a-year food company. And true to form, he shared this good fortune by donating all the profits and royalties he earned to thousands of charities around the world, a total which now exceeds $250 million."
Robert Forrester, vice chairman
Newman's Own Foundation

"Paul was a very fine actor and a really good race driver.
But mostly, he personified humanity -
always taking care of those who were less fortunate.
For me, this will be his legacy."
David Letterman
