Audrey Jean Winifred PAUL

PAUL, Audrey Jean Winifred April 28, 1918 - May 10, 2011 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Audrey Paul, (wife), mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt and dear friend. Predeceased by her husband Joseph in 2004, daughter Patricia in 1995, and brother Jack in 2001, she will be sadly missed by her children Joseph (Wendy), David (Brenda), Gillian (Bernie) Ernewein, and Susan (Julian) Manzur; son-in-law David Riis; grandchildren Ainsley Paul, Gavin (Jeanette) Paul, Leslie (Marius) Segal, Daniel (Melissa) Riis, Matthew (Jennifer) Riis, Trevor (Susan) Paul, Allison Paul, Mavis Ernewein (Curtis), Amanda Ernewein (Darcy), Stephanie Ernewein, , and Ava Manzur: great-grandchildren Maya, Matthew and Evan Segal, Benjamin, Chloe and Bethany Riis, Isabella and Izaak Riis, Sebastian and Imogen Paul, and Sierra George; sister Shirley Chrismas, sister-in-law Ricky Morgan, nieces, nephews, cousins and a multitude of close friends. Born and raised in Bashaw, Alberta Audrey attended Edmonton Normal School to fulfill her dream of becoming a school teacher. After teaching at a number of country schools she met and married Joe Paul, a career Naval Officer. During the early years of their marriage they lived on Canada's East coast where they raised a family of five children. In 1971 Joe and Audrey relocated to Kelowna where they enjoyed a long and happy retirement. Avid golfers, they were long time members of the Kelowna Golf and Country Club where they hosted a number of memorable family celebrations. In 2000 they made a move to South Surrey to be closer to family. Family and friends were most important to Audrey and she touched the lives of many people during her 93 years; her thoughtfulness and genuine interest in others created positive connections with everyone she met. The family is grateful to the staff at Peace Arch Hospital and especially to Dr. Benitez for his compassion and kindness. A Celebration of Audrey's Life will be held at Beecher Place, 12160 Beecher Street in Crescent Beach, Surrey, BC on August 28, 2011. In lieu of flowers donations to the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation would be appreciated. Condolences may be offered to the family at davepaul7@gmail.com. Fraser Heights Chapel 604-589-2559
