I am so sad to hear of Paul's passing. My condolences to all the family. He taught so much to the many who worked with him and I will always remember my time at Intertask working with him and the other wonderful staff. He had an infectious smile and laugh and as was mentioned in the notice, never forgot a detail about anything. Rest in peace Paul, you left a legacy.

Very sorry for your loss. My condolences to the entire family. Paul was a wonderful man who taught us all so much! He really did have a great sense of humour. It's been 23 years since I worked with him, but I will always remember his "mantras" and the pleasure of making him laugh. May he rest in peace..

Paul Sr. was an early proponent of the fledgling tourism industry in the National Capital Region and a stalwart supporter of the hospitality industry, giving much of his time and energy to promote and mature both during his active tenure at Intertask. We have lost an icon in the Ottawa business events community: he will be missed by many including my colleagues at Intertask, especially Leeanne and Paul. My sincerest condolences at this difficult time.

I was saddened to hear of Paul's passing. Back in 1972, Paul hired me to cover Parliament. I was green as grass. The infectious smile, the hearty laugh, that constant quest to improve - to do better. The lessons he taught me have stayed with me ever since. Rest well old friend. Duff

To Joanne and family, Susan, Sandra and Cathi, Such a shock to hear of Paul's sudden passing. I have loved Paul dearly since the day he was born and although we were cousins, to me he was my "brother". Our families grew up very close and I have many very fond memories of fun and laughter and over the years we always kept in touch no matter how many miles were between us. Hugs to you all and God bless.
