When Colin came by today to tell me of Paul's passing, I was shocked and saddened to hear of his death. He was a dear, dear man. May he rest in peace.

My sympathy goes out to Paul's family. I knew Paul for many years. We shared many laughs and fond memories. I know Jesus will take good care of him. Bless you, Matt and Denise Slocomb and Krystle Hector.

I'm so sorry to hear of Paul's passing. He was so much fun and knew everything about everything. I was amazed at how much he knew about birds, plants, wildlife, photography and especially about cooking! Awesome tofu cook and sturgeon and scrambled eggs. Thanks Paul for all the good memories you provided me and the family. We love you and miss you dearly. Rest my friend...rest. With Love, Terri Milton

Paul was a very talented guy and a fascinating person to know when I was growing up. He could always be counted on giving me his last fishing rod, gun or guitar when he either built or bought the 'next step up'! Thanks for all the great fishing and hunting trips Paul - I will remember them always and wonder what kind of fish you've discovered in your new journey. (Be sure to check for trespassing signs before you start casting);] Love Jim

With deepest regards for Paul's family and friends! I always thought he and Jesus would have so much in common - both carpenter and fisherman. He could always make a fantastic meal from practically nothing and fed all his friends. He had lots of great friends who stood by him. Paul loved his friends and always spoke of them with admiration and love, never a bad comment about anyone ever. He set a good example for everyone about simplicity and faith. I will forever think of him with love.
