Really sad to learn that Paul has passed away.
Grew up on Romsey St. with Paul and his family.
Great people and he was one of the best. Many memories of going up to the seminary in Hamilton on weekends when we were young. We were all going to be priest until we grew up!!
My condolences to the family you lost a great guy, but Gods got someone to give him advice!!!

So sorry for your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

It's been many years since I've seen Uncle Paul with my living on the west coast but I will never forget him and all the help he gave to his brother John, my father, for so many years, especially in his last years while battling cancer. I will always remember his big blue eyes and bright smile.

God Bless,
Caroline (Dooley), Bob, Colin, Ryan and Kelsey Johnson
