My deepest condolences Rose, Deb (Bill) and Trevor (Lori) and grandkids. Uncle Paul was always laughing and smiling. I don't ever remember him any other way. I remember the massive Christmas trees that to this day have no idea how he got them into the house. He is going to be missed.

Paul was a great friend whom we met at Noah's Ark in Panama City Beach, FL. many years ago. He was enthusiastic playing guitar and and would dedicate at least one song every evening we jammed to his love, Gladys. Paul joined our Canadian Connection in 2010 & was a valuable member that visited a number of long term care facilities in P.C. He was always entertaining & had new songs to tryout at our jam sessions which we held in our garage. We knew that the song was always in "D" which was a favourite of many guitar players. Gladys always accompanied him & was an enthusiastic supporter. I have contacted Paul a number of times since Gladys' death & he no longer traveled south.
We miss them both and send our sincere condolences to family and friends.

Our heartfelt condolences to Pauls family.
We met Paul and Gladys when we bought our cabin in Lac du Bonnet. What a beautiful welcoming couple. I remember Paul knocking on our door and inviting us out for a Sunday morning breakfast.
Paul was very active, playing baseball, golfing and fishing in the summer and curling and skating in the winter. Remember Pauls fishing hat that Lori always tried to throw away.
Paul would clean off a skating rink on the lake in front of his place. Many a hour was spent on the ice around Christmas time.
Paul also played guitar and sang. He got me over to the Legion Jam in Lac du Bonnet where we played and sang together.
Good bye my friend I know that you are waltzing with your Angel again.

Very sorry to hear of Paul's passing. Hadn't seen him in years but have fond memories of him from Panama City. For a great number of years he coached the Snowbird Slow Pitch team down there and I coached the similar one from Destin, Florida. We played on a fairly regular schedule during the winter months. He was true gentleman and a friend. Whenever our teams met it was a competitive but fun time.
