So sorry to hear of Paula's passing. I first heard of her as a group FrancePaulaandNadine, two of whom joined me in Kelowna at the Canadian School of Ballet. Paula and I were at Ryerson together, though I think she was a year ahead of me. My boyfriend Blaine and I would hang out with she and Neil. A few years later we both  ended up in Kelowna teaching fitness, and worked at Gold's Gym together.  I remember lunch at a diner with a very cute, busy little Ashley. She was the centre of Paula's life.

I have looked for Paula online many times with no luck, and I finally found her only to see she's gone. She was such a kind generous person, funny, loved to laugh, intelligent (she was an awesome study partner) and was fierce in her defence of what was right. I will light a candle for her. Sending so much love to Ashley, Danni, and others who must be missing this bright shining light. 

I'm saddened to hear of one of my idols in ballet has passed. I was just looking at a photo last week of our dance recital in St. Paul's church. She moved so beautifully in all her ballet  exercises.  Hugs to her sister, Danni, and mom Sylvia. 😘. May you memories of her help the healing process.

Ashley, Dani and Family, I was so sad to read about Paula's passing.  I have so many wonderful memories from our high school years and when our children were young.  She was a very good friend to me who was there for many significant moments in my life including hosting a surprise 30th birthday party for me.  She will always hold a special place in my heart.  May your memories and love of family and friends help you through this time.

I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Paula.
We went to school together and although we didn't keep in touch I've thought about her often, especially in the last couple of years since our 40yr school reunion.
I wished I had been able to touch base with her.
I remember her as a fun gentle soul.
My condolences to Ashley, Danira and the rest of the family.


I was sadden to hear of Paula's passing.  Condolences to you and the family.

Dani, Ashley and family - It was always a pleasure to see your sister / mom.  She was a very gentle, kind soul.  We had many good laughs as we travelled through our school years.  May good memories remain in your hearts.
