I am blessed with the most wonderful cousins and I adore them all. Paul being number one cousin(number one son as my dear darling Auntie pat would say as he was her 1st born) I will miss his lovely visits to help my dad with his computer and how he would stay to the small hours..I loved his distinctive unique tone to his voice and the generic Holman laugh that was very comforting,How he always took interest I my crazy passion for horses although he never understood why.His ability to relay an event as if you were there with him. I am so very thankful to of sent some time with him over the last few years. I promise to make sure I now bring the Bombay Mix to any family gathering Paul as It just wouldn't be the same with out it. Very much love and sadly missed. xx

I met Paul when I first started at SLaM, he was a great work colleague, always friendly, helpful and supportive. I have many good memories of our lunches and journeys home together and on occasions, listening sessions at his home as we both had an interest in Hi-Fi. Paul will be sadly missed. My thoughts and condolences to his family.g

As an adopted uncle I first met this skinny little boy in 1951. Enjoyable days playing with the children at 222 in the early fifties. Page boy at my wedding amongst other things.

Very sad to hear of Paul's passing. Paul was a kind and friendly colleague who very much took me under his wing when I first started working at SLAM. I have many good memories of working with him. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

We were deeply saddened to hear that our dear friend Paul had lost his battle.
We have many precious memories of our 50 year friendship with Paul.
Every Boxing Day Paul would join us at the Miles family gathering that was known as "Granny's day" he was an honorary member of the family. He was Susan's Godfather.
Paul will be deeply missed , particularly we will miss his terrific sense of humour and amazing encyclopedic knowledge.
Our thought are with you all.
