June 5, 1921 - November 4, 2023
Paul left us at the memorable age of 102 (and 5 months)
Paul was born in Wynyard, Saskatchewan. He joined the Royal Canadian Navy, proudly serving on the Motor Torpedo Boat #735 and saw action in the European Theatre of WWII. After the war Paul moved to the Kootenays where he met his future wife, Muriel Huscroft and they married in Wynndel on October 6, 1948. The young couple moved to Vancouver where Paul and some family members built and successfully operated their service station, Knight Motors, until a heart attack caused Paul to retire in 1985. Paul and Muriel then moved to Sechelt where his new focus became travelling and gardening. Three children; Bonnie, Bill, and Bruce, five grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, and a lifetime of wonderful memories later, we sadly acknowledge this amazing man’s passing.
Paul’s family gratefully thanks the staff and doctors of Sechelt Hospital for the care and kindness they provided during his final months.
“Goodbye isn’t forever; goodbye isn’t the end. It just means we’ll miss you until we meet again”
