Peacefully, our beloved (Ivan) Paul Coulson passed away at Joseph Brant Hospital on Thursday January 28, 2021 in his 86th year. Paul leaves behind his loving wife of almost 65 years, Marjorie. Loving father to; Daryl (Sabine), Gary (Sara) and previously deceased by Karen (Dan). Forever cherished Poppa to Ashley, Melany, Tyler, Kirsty, Morgan, Dylan, Danny and Mathew. Sadly missed by his great-grandchildren; Jonah, Micah and Claira. Forever remembered by his siblings; Gail (Jim) and Phillip (Lois). Predeceased by his brother Bruce (late Donna) (Shirley). Paul will be missed by his many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Paul enjoyed a long and successful career with Lafarge before retiring at the age of 60 – that’s when the fun really started. His love of Family, The Halton Sportsman’s Association, his interest in fishing and hunting resulted in many, many cherished friendships. His love of the Cottage on Loon Bay in Dorset, the annual trek to Florida each winter and his travels and time with the OFAH, touched many people. This was well documented in his lil “Pocket Bible” that we all came to love.
His greatest love was his wife Marjorie and family. His fondest family gathering was each Christmas Eve, a tradition started by his parents Mervyn and Ora when he harmonized with everyone with the “singing of the blessing” –
Be present at our table, Lord
Be Here and everywhere adored.
These mercies bless,
And grant that we
May feast in paradise
With Thee.
Private Family Service to take place at a later date.
