Paul Chosse Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Apr. 8 to Apr. 15, 2010.
Paul Chosse loving son, father, grandfather, brother and dear friend to people in all walks of life died on March 31, 2010 after suffering a heart attack. Paul was born January 8, 1955 in Boston, MA and lived in Northern CA for many years before returning to Mass. He most recently lived in Plymouth. Paul was a master sleight of hand magician, known on the magic forums for his depth of knowledge, special way with words, and desire to share his expertise with aspiring magicians. He was also a rare book dealer, a jack of all trades, a man with a big heart, and the smartest, funniest person wherever he went. He leaves his mother, Annette Chosse; a daughter, Simone Chosse, and grandson Damian both of San Francisco, CA; 2 brothers, Wayne and David Chosse of Lowell, MA; and many others who loved him. Graveside memorial services will be held at a later date.

To Pauls family:

I knew Paul for many years when he was living near the Russian River in Guernville. He was my friend, my magic teacher, and someone who gave freely of his time and talent to encourage a young career.

He loved his books, his knowledge was deep, and upon his passing I felt as if a library had burned down. My heart, my prayers, and thoughts of love will go out to you and him this windy night, as I recall the warm memories of my friend and
mentor Paul.

Peace,

Timothy

Sorry to hear of your loss. He was a very dear friend when I was growing up. He had a heart of gold and we enjoyed his talents. He was a gem.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, --- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

from a poem I used to say to Paul by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)
