A lot of younger growers may not remember Paul.
A great guy, a great Canadian and a fun loving guy with
malice toward no one.

As we approach the weigh off season I cannot help but of
Paul's motto about weigh offs.

"When the tail gate drops the B--l S--t stops"

Thanks to Paul and all of the other growers who used to
make such a great weigh off at the downtown Ottawa
By-Ward market as part of the old OSLGA.

In memory of Paul:

I didn't know about the fella Bob, but I know there are some good folk up yonder. Kudos to Paul and our other Canadien friends.

Paul was a true gentleman grower and asset to the growing community. He gladly shared seeds and emails a number of years ago when I discovered AG's. Nice remembrance Bob.

Any pics of Paul on this site? From what I have heard about Bob he was truly a great guy, and funny also.

We will miss Paul when we go on the next Giant Pumpkin Cruise. A very friendly grower.

Paul was a fun-loving grower & real down-to-earth nice guy. We spent time with him on the pumpkin cruise & really enjoyed his company. He will be fondly remembered & sadly missed by the many people he met over the years.
