Paul was a supporter of the Swift Current Indians and the Swift Current Broncos. He loved to watch sports, especially baseball and hockey. Paul was a single father for many years. He was involved in all of his kids sports and activities from coaching to making sure he attended every thing they were involved in. Paul was an extremely proud parent. Paul loved his grandkids and came to watch their sports whenever he could. He loved to talk baseball and was a huge Blue Jay's Baseball fan, and loved to tell stories of his "career" in baseball with the Regals. Paul was known for his sense of humor and could strike up any conversation with telling a joke. Dad will be forever loved and deeply missed.
