I was absolutely stunned when informed of Paul’s passing. I had so many fond memories of our work time and play time.
He was a true friend to Jim and I.
I’m thinking of you and your family and what you are going through at this time .

It’s been far too many years since we last connected, so we (Janet Townshend and Michael Wenzowski) were absolutely shocked when we recently learned of Paul’s death in early April.
When Michael’s family moved to Hamilton’s west mountain in 1968, Paul was the first friend he made at Westmount High School. That friendship lasted many years, but the different paths followed in our later lives resulted in us last seeing each other in July of 1992.
Paul was a rock-solid and true friend whose thoughtfulness, quick wit and great sense of humour always made him a pleasure to be with.
On a practical level, Paul was gifted with creativity, insight and inspiration; to the effect that he could fix damn near anything, and excelled at creating order from chaos.
Our thoughts are with you Lisa - but they also extend to your family and close friends. Paul’s death leaves a void that cannot be easily filled. He is now, and will always be: deeply and very sadly missed.
