Parcourez la nécrologie de Paul Amos 2024 résidant dans la province Quebec pour le détail des funérailles
Paul Amos, B.Sc., B.A., LL.L. left us peacefully on October 18th, 2024, after a long battle with LewyBody Dementia and Parkinson’s.
Paul leaves behind the love of his life, Nancy, his wife of 62 years, and their four daughters Suzanne (Bruce Beckett), Stephanie (Ernie Toste), Julie (James Lockington) and Zoë, and their grandchildren Emma, Ben, Sam and Jacob Kinsella and Sloane Lockington. Predeceased by his eldest grandson Christopher Perry and by his parents Pauline Delfausse Amos and J O’Brien Amos.
Born in Montreal, Paul earned a BSc (Geology) at McGill University in 1958 where he was a member of the Kappa Alpha Society, followed by a BA at Sir George Williams University in 1960 and then his Law degree at Université Laval in 1963. He was admitted to the Quebec Bar in 1965. He spent his entire legal career at Montreal law firm Ogilvy Renault (now Norton Rose Fulbright) where he was a senior partner. Paul also taught law classes at both McGill Law and l’Université de Montréal. Always focussed on community, he was active in many political campaigns; he was president of the Victorian Order of Nurses (VON); ran Quebec’s Centraide/United Way campaign in the late 1970’s; was a president of the Orleans Fish and Games Club and, post retirement, was a municipal council member for Georgeville, Quebec; president and board member of the Colby-Curtis Museum; and, president of the Georgeville Community Association. An avid outdoorsman and fly-fisherman, he was an active member of both L’Ile au Ruau and Anse Saint-Jean. Affectionately known as Papa Bear, Daddio and Paolo – he loved nothing more than his family (his “chickens”) whether it was skiing at Owl’s Head, canoe tripping and fishing at the Orleans Club, family skit and games nights, or daredevil exploits on the water in Gaspé or Maine. Latterly, he was an active Baba to his beloved grandchildren, enjoying nothing more than listening to their tales at the infamous ‘Georgeville dinner table’. Paul was active his whole life and still played tennis and fly-fished well into his 80’s. Our family would like to express our gratitude to Paula for her years of care and friendship to us all. We are also grateful for the care of the nurses and préposées of the 4th floor palliative care unit at the Centre Hospitalier de Memphrémagog. It is impossible to summarize the long, beautiful life of a good man, wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and friend in so few words. Suffice to say that we loved him beyond measure and will miss him forever. We are pretty sure that wherever he is now, he is the life of the party – dancing to some Creedence Clearwater Revival and crooning Hank Williams.
There will be a private family internment, followed by a celebration of life at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to Parkinson Quebec in Paul’s name.
