Paul and Rose were married in 1942 and raised their family in the Weston area. Dad was transferred to Portage La Prairie in 1972, where he worked as Branch Manager of Acklands Grainger until his retirement in 1988. Dad continued to live in Portage until he moved to the Poseidon Care Centre in 2002. Paul was also an active member of the 402 Squadron Air Force Auxiliary and retired with the rank of Master Warrant Officer. Family was always first and foremost with Dad. Family gatherings with children and grandchildren were especially important. Loving time and effort was spent in preparation to make every event special. Paul spent many hours in his garden, which was legendary in the neighbourhood. The family would like to express their thanks to Dr. Hartley and the nurses and staff of the Poseidon Care Centre for their professional and compassionate care of our father, grandfather and brother.
