I didn't know Paul well, but I met him periodically throughout my life. He was my Mom's cousin and she always spoke so highly of him and his brother. She had so many great memories of times spent with the twins out on the farm in Richer MB. Silly stories actually that always made me laugh. I often asked her to "tell me that story again"....alas, the cousins are all together now in heaven...I truly believe that they are having a blast. Rest in Peace Paul, you will be missed here, but your smile will be welcomed in heaven - Posted by: Tracy Hoffmeier (Cousin (few times removed)) on: May 26, 2016

We had the chance to meet Paul and Lucille in Saint Basile, New Brunswick. Paul was a special person, always fun to be with, he liked to laugh a lot. When we visited in Winnipeg with our girls, they really loved him. Paul will be in our prayers and a mass will be celebrated for him the first sunday of June. We offer our deepest sympathy to Lucille and the family. As we say in French: Lucille bon courage. May God bless you all. - Posted by: Albert & Francine Martin (Friends) on: May 25, 2016

Paul has been my friend for many years. We had so many good times together. We kept in touch and he remained my friend even after I moved from Winnipeg some 29 years ago. After moving to Ottawa from Winnipeg I missed him a lot. How many times he made me laugh and it was so easy to enjoy his company. Over the years Paul and I helped each other with many projects around our homes. He was always there for me. When I was hospitalized, for a long time with Guillain Barré Syndrome at the St-Boniface hospital, he would pay me regular visits and even found time to come to cut my hair in the ICU. He got to know my whole family including mother who still lives in New Brunswick. I will miss you so much Paul. My whole family is sad. Rest in peace my friend until we meet again.
