Paul, it’s a relief that your suffering is over, but it’s hard to accept we will never hear another of your stories or jokes. I will miss being called “kido” (even though I’m only three years younger). Our family will miss you always. I will keep my last promise and look after your Sherry. Rest easy now, our friend.

To Paul’s amazing family, sending condolences to you all at this time,
It was an honour to help care for Paul and have some good laughs and jokes with him over his time with us. I will miss seeing him around the ward and am sorry his idea for a motorised hospital bed for one last maccas run never panned out.
Sincere condolences to the whole family, Paul was a fantastic bloke who welcomed my family and I to WGFA a few years back, always happy to give great advice and encouragement, I knew It would be a great shoot if I was lucky enough to be in Paul’s group.
Thank you. Your message will be displayed once moderated. This may take up to 24 hours.
