It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Paul

The family would like to express their gratitude for the care
and love given to Paul during his stay at YorkCare Centre, Tower 3,
and a special thank you to his caregiver, Ellen Hurley Legere, for her
many years as part of our family.
Paul was the owner of Devon Pharmacy, where he appreciated
and valued all of his employees and customers. He was active in the
community as a member and volunteer of many organizations. Paul was
often recognized for his contributitions and this made his family very
proud.

forever by his love, kindness, warmth, and humour. We miss you
already.
Respecting Paul’s wishes, there will be no
visitation or funeral service held. Private interment in Saint John
