Just last year we went to the Pathfinder Camporee in Oshkosh, Wisconsin with the Richards family. Paul’s son David and my daughter are in the Pathfinder Club.
Paul, Colleen and David had such a great time, Paul even taught Honors during Camporee. He will be sadly missed by the Pathfinders and the members of the Ajax SDA Church.
At Ajax Family Camp and picnic last year We got to see the other side of Paul, his love for nature.
He was a Inspiring Sabbath School teacher and an excellent Bible Class facilitator. Paul was very knowledgeable in the scriptures and had a gift of expounding the word of God, eloquently, explicitly and coherent. He had quite a gift from the Lord.
The Richards family and our family many times hosted the Pathfinders at our respective homes last year when they were preparing for the Bible Challenge competition. Paul was very helpful and was part of the coaching team that helped our Pathfinders to create history, in that, Ajax SDA Pathfinders won the Durham Bible Challenge for the first time.
Paul was such a kind and giving person and was a principled man of God, who is already missed by our church members. We will continue to pray for strength and peace to his dear wife Colleen and his two sons, David and Joel.
Brother Paul May you sleep in Peace until the trumpet sounds and Lord wakes you up from your slumber to dwell eternally in His presence.
Steven, Pauline and Christina Vassell
