I miss you already, big brother. You always managed to find the funny and the bemusedly absurd in every situation. "Mary Le Bone" will never not be funny, and your vast equine knowledge, hard-earned through decades of city life, remains a marvel. --Jimmy

To my beloved brother Paul. You were always my rock. I could count on you no matter the situation. My heart is broken but I know you are at peace and pain free. It was an honor to be your sister. Love, Dolly

The best big brother I could have asked for. No one made me laugh harder or laugh more than you. A true renaissance man. I will love and miss you forever. Joan

My "little" brother.  How I will miss the way you could tell a story leaving us all doubled over laughing while you keep a straight face.  Will miss you forever Paul.  What a hole your leaving creates in our family. Thankful your passing was so peaceful after your struggle. My heart is aching. Rest in peace little brother.

Paul, you’re gone and I am having problems getting my head around it. Your absence is painful.  So much to remember. My trips from Ottawa to visit two or three times a year were always worth the drive. Jimmy beat me to it but he is right Mary Le Bone is a classic & hilarious.  I laugh every time I hear (or say it) God that was funny. Paul, I miss you.  You will always be in my heart.
