Dear Shannon: Sylvia and I send our heartfelt condolences on the passing of Paul.  You have been such wonderful neighbours for so long and we love you dearly.  Harry and Sylvia

Dear Shannon; 
I offer my heart felt condolences for the loss of your really great guy . Yes, there are at least a hundred tales to laugh over, like his black-tie toast to the Queen while climbing Mt Rainier with Terry and Gillie ,and his infamously named dog "Rekcuf" ,but also there are countless examples of doing deeds for others , such as solving my hip-roofing problem on our then new panabode , gosh back about 1978 !!!Yes I still remember and indeed appreciate !!! I trust that special memories you cherish will be a source of strength and joie de vie for you. Very best wishes, Skooke Roberts

Dear Shannon,
So sorry to hear of Paul's passing. It was days ago that we were recalling Paul's presence at parties so many years ago. Our thoughts go out to you, as well as Todd and Taryn.

Dear Shannon, Todd & Taryn

We're all so deeply sorry for your loss. Paul was an incredible person with an absolutely brilliant sense of humour.
 I remember visiting all of you when Harry was only three years old. We had headed to a local petting zoo in the area and Harry was bummed that he couldnt see over the fence to see this massive long haired pig. Paul grabbed him, swung him upside down, held him by his ankles inside the pen and promptly told him to pat the piggy...and that was our Paul. 
Gone too soon

Shannon  Peter and I send sincere condolences to you and your family.

Dear Shannon - we're thinking of you and all the family at this very sad and difficult time. Paul will be greatly missed by many. Daphne & Ran

Dear Shannon,
Paul and I remember many great, silly, funny times with you both at Crystal Mountain. (my) Paul also remembers the good times with 'The Gooser' playing rugby with the Castaways and taking the Parkland kids on the Nitnat trips. Coups once said to me, "If I ever had to trust my life in anyone's hands, it would be with Baylis." He was always the most prepared for any eventuality on the hikes, or on the slopes, or in fact, anywhere. 

As for me, he was always trying to trip me up. I remember us playing Trivial Pursuits at the ski Condo once, and Coups and I were winning - it depended on one last question which I had the correct answer for (what was Kotter's real first name?) We had it - "Gabe" - but the Gooser kept asking us (me) if I was absolutely sure, and was it my final answer, etc, holding me with a steely look. We succumbed and changed our answer, and the Gooser burst into laughter and won the game; because we had been right all along. He always loved reminding me of that! I remember another time (you were pregnant), and we visited you with Ratso, my dog. (Your) Paul lunged a me for some reason, and Ratso, ordinarily a coward, bit him! I was so proud of Ratso! Baylis couldn't stop laughing!

Anyway, good memories from us both. It's a long time since the three of us were in school together at Monterey. Paul always insisted on being "Paul #1", and so he was. 

Much love from Paul and Hilary Coupland

Shannon...thinking of you today. Sorry to hear we have lost Paul. And what a loss it is! He gave us some of the biggest laughs ever enjoyed. I will remember him fondly. Regards, John

dear shannon and family .i am saddened to hear of pauls passing.
i still have visions of his diving tries at shawnigan lake school.

Memories of Paul's life and times going back some 55 years are indelible.  They, and he, always seemed so sunny.  And just the mention of his name throughout the years would bring grins all around.  I'm sure it still will!  Condolences to Shannon and family - one can only imagine the gap his passing will leave in your universe.  Bless you.

Dear Shannon and family.
Thinking of you .
Look after each other.
With respect ,
Susan Callin (nee Whittington)

Shannon....I was saddened to read of Paul's passing but immediately went to the many great trips to Seattle when the Castaways went to play rugby.  I can still hear him yelling at the driver from the back of the bus to hurry.
He had a great sense of humour and was a man of great character.

Kelly Mann

Our love and condolences go out to you and your family
Paul and his huge personality will be truly missed but we have so many memories of him to last a lifetime
