Not sure what to say?

Marcia, what wonderful memories we both have of the wondrous Christmas parties you and Paul hosted at your Lytton Boulevard home for many, many years. The candles in paper bags along the pathway to your front door were most welcoming, as were you and Paul. On entering your home, there was often a log fire burning in the hearth. We remember you playing your Grand Piano accompanied by some friends playing musical instruments and others of us happily singing carols. This was always followed...

Marcia, I am so very sorry to learn of Paul's passing. I will forever cherish all the hilarious memories at all of our family reunions. Paul was without a doubt the life of the party and so much fun!! We laughed so much together, he was always cracking me up about something. I still remember all the fun we had at your wedding, when I was only twelve years old. I could g9 on forever about the happy memories. Our family is so blessed. I can only imagine what an indescribable loss this is for...

I am so sorry for your loss Marcia. When I met him he seemed cheerful and glad to be in love with you.

Paul & I & his wonderful wife Marcia met at St.Peters Church on Bathurst St & remained friends for quite sometime! He welcomed me as informal barman at their Christmas Soiree Parties on Lytton Blvd, where many stories were told and Christmas Carols enjoyed.
Paul lived an adventurous geological life & had not fate intervened he would have become a pioneer professional hockey player.
He & Marcia were patrons of the classical music arts & they often enjoyed outdoor concerts at Ontario...

Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Marcia,

Very sorry to hear the news. I have very, very fond memories of Paul and his antics at the farm. Blessing Brian's pond with orange crush followed by the belly flop into said pond immediately comes to mind. Or what about the martini tester? Im sure Big Al is waiting for him and they will continue their interrupted friendship. In short, he was just a good guy and even though it has been several years since I have seen him I think of him a lot.
Respectively,
Buck Orr
