Paul is Heidi’s one true love and very best friend. They were inseparable and loved spending all their time together. Paul has two children. His loving daughter Roslyn was so precious to him. He loved to hear all her stories of the adventures she experienced. He would light up when her name was even mentioned. His son Grant was not only a son, but a best friend. Hours of hockey rink time was spent together. Paul was so proud of his son, filled with pride every time Grant’s name was mentioned. Paul was a loving, kind, compassionate, gentle soul.
