Never met you but if your anything like your grandson must of been a amazing guy shame I never got to meet you, rest in peace mate

REST IN PEACE PAUL
GOD BLESS YOU

RIP Paul a lovely man inside and out you will be sadly missed xx

Ever since I was born you made it your mission to give me the best childhood anyone could’ve wished for. From big things like taking me to the curry house from such a young age, coming to see you at work to the little things like going to the pub and measuring my height every time and giving me constant attention, which showed truly how caring and selfless you were to everyone.
The memories we made together were endless, especially the holidays to Cyprus that I would look forward to each year, and I just wish that we could’ve made more but I am eternally grateful for the time we were able to have.
I am so thankful to have had someone so important to me in my life that I can grow up sharing your memory and living my life just as you’d want me to.
Now I know that you’re at peace, all of this pain is over and you get to spend your time with Nanny Sandra looking over us.
I will forever love you Grandy

Memories of Paul they guy who use to build snowmen with my brother and David and leave them on the neighbours door ring the bell and run, child hood memories for a long as I can remember, even though we had 2 children together we were destined to only ever be friends. His love for Ali showed that and they both became dear friends and like auntie and uncle to my other children and helped me through some really tough times, I will always remember our children playing together in Thames Dutton, sorry you didn’t get to spend longer with your family you were taken far to young thinking of all your family RIP Paul

Where do you start when you’ve lost your big brother, to say we are all lost is an understatement.
My brother was the person I’d go to growing up if any of the older boys was picking on me, he was the one I’ve always gone to, we’ve had quiet conversations over the years, those words I’ll hold close forever. He was a gentle giant unless you crossed someone he loved. And I truly loved that about him, no matter what I always had my big bro to go to if all else fails, and I did quite a few times.
I’ve had the pleasure of living with Paul and Ali, I was only a teenager but even then, the love between them was so clear, those months I loved, and again will never forget. He’d turn up at night in a bloody great coach and just park it anywhere, he didn’t care one bit. The days out in the coach, just me and him, was hilarious, if he could make someone jump while driving believe me, he would. I still to this day cannot tell one story without laughing. He was a prankster but not planned, just random things that was so funny. I was envious of him with the way he didn’t care what people thought of him, he just went through life as he chose.
Out of all the people who went to see mum in her last days, Paul was the one that she smiled at, and she truly lit up for a few seconds. She really did love her boy, that’s one thing I’m pleased about, they are together again ♥️
Ali. I want to take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the care you gave my brother, he truly wanted for nothing, he had 24/7 care in any way she could give it. You didn’t fail him by not being there in those final moments, he would never have let you be there, he loved you too much for that to be a memory of him. I know for a fact he waited. You haven’t failed him or yourself, I am amazingly proud of what you did for him, and you should be too, not many get the care you gave.
To all of the family in Nottingham, his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren my thoughts, love and prayers are with you. The love for him shines through, I hope he knows how loved he was, because it’s so clear.
It’s never goodbye bro, it’s until we meet again.
Come see me from time to time, and look after mum for me. Love you always ♥️

You were my big brother all my life but I only knew that for the last 18months.
I wish I had had more time with you.
You welcomed me to your family with open arms and love.
Til we meet again xxx

How many times I've asked why you,the man that taught me so much over the last 34 years, the only thing he didn't teach me was how to live without him, I promised you I would be with you every step of the way I'm so sorry I missed your last step and that hurts so much, I will love you for the rest of my life and know when my time comes you will be waiting for you, sleep well my love, all my love forever Ali xxx
