Over the years I went to school, and played sports with Paul. Lost touch over the years, however the memories of good times will remain with me forever. Wishing the family all the best.

I know Paul because of Lacrosse. Our sons played on team BC together. Although this was 6 yrs ago I still remember Paul as clear as a bell We spent a good chunk of time together I was so impressed with Paul’s great attitude for life. I wish more people had Paul’s attitude. He was A very positive person and didn’t care what people thought he had courage. I didnt know he had passed I am very sad and will miss seeing him at the junior games.
Pynn family – I did write in the book at Paul’s service, however, as it was at the bottom of a page, and my writing is not good I wanted to make sure my thoughts of Paul were known to you. I recall Paul from his Racquet Club hockey days and always thought of him as a ‘good kid’. He was a good athelte evident in the many sports he played. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.
