Words can’t begin to express our sorrow at the loss of baby Paul forever in our memories
Auntie Lynn uncle Paul and family
What a sad piece of news to learn of Paul’s passing‼️🙏🏼
Paul was one of those who would always make me smile through a comment, an antic or a ‘mickey take’ or his frequent inappropriate language‼️
A lot of different reasons for a lot of different people to love, like or care for him, Paul loved his family & was fun to be around. Bright, engaging, giving & caring‼️
The World is just a bit less bright right now with Paul leaving us way too early…
Rest easy fella, you gave a lot to many❤️🙏🏼

Deeply saddened by Paul’s sudden passing, especially at such a young age. I had the privilege of training and working with him in Leicester, where he became more than a colleague - he was a true friend. His wit and personality brought life to the office. Paul was a good man who deeply loved his family. I’ll always cherish the time we shared. My heartfelt condolences to his family - my thoughts are with you all.

Fish was exceptionally smart, hilariously witty and a true grand master at turning mischief, mockery, and the odd swear word (if you know you know) into pure entertainment.
He gave so much of his time, passion, and love for team sport to others. In doing so, he made a real difference in the lives of so many people along the way, especially the younger generation. We as a family will always be especially grateful for the way he supported, encouraged and developed our son over many years in football at Croft. He will be deeply missed as a friend, but never forgotten.
Heartfelt condolences to Rachel, Joel, Alice, all of his family and many many friends.

Fish will be missed by so many of us. Whenever we bumped into each other in Birmingham, his infectious smile and warm nature was there - a chat about respective families, football and work with a bit of wit thrown in by Fish and I always left feeling a little brighter! We worked together in Leicester many years ago. Such a tragic loss of one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Sincere condolences to all of his family - he will live on in all of you. x

I’m heartbroken and still in shock to hear about Fish. We’ve been mates since pre-school, and over all those years we shared so many memories and so much laughter. He was truly one of a kind and I’ve never met anybody else like him. I’ll miss him so much, but me and his close mates will keep those memories and the laughter alive. My thoughts are with his family through this heartbreaking time. I can’t begin to imagine the loss they’re feeling, and I hope they find some comfort in knowing how loved and cherished he was by everyone who knew him. Rest in peace mate.

Sending love to everyone who is affected by the loss of Fish. He was one of a kind. He was an important part of our family, particularly growing up, and he shall be missed. We are all thinking about Paul, Kathy, Clare, Rachel, Joel and Alice and his mates from all walks of life who will miss him dearly. X

My condolences to your family. Such a monumental loss.
Fish was a great friend and an amazing person to work with. I’ll miss the fun and humour he brought to the office, but more than that, I’ll miss the friendship we shared.
I will never forget the laughter and support, through many years, different roles, amazing times, and tough times. He was always there for me and we laughed our way through it all via our shared inappropriate sense of humour.
In amongst all the laughter, banter, immaturity, and swearing, there were also moments of tenderness and maturity as he would talk proudly of his family, and keep us up to date on the latest development’s, and how amazing they were all doing. He would then take great delight in hearing about my family and my updates. These are the moments that not everyone at work saw, but revealed even more layers of him to love.
Losing Fish is heartbreaking and I’m sad we didn’t get that last round of golf, but i am glad we had a fun summer.
I’ll treasure my memories of him forever.
Rest in peace my friend.

I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Fish’s passing. He was such a cracking lad, and every time I saw him it felt like we were right back at school together, laughing and catching up as if no time had passed. He will be remembered with so much warmth and fondness. Sending my deepest condolences to you and your family during this difficult time.

I had the privilege of playing cricket with Fish and sharing many dressing rooms over the years. He was a champion bloke, a talented cricketer, and a truly great teammate. I was deeply saddened to hear this news, it is so tragic that he has been taken so young, with so much still ahead of him.
Since moving away from Leicestershire a few years ago, I never had the chance to meet his family, but I know he had wonderful role models in Senior Fish and Kath, and I have no doubt he carried those same qualities into being a husband and father.
Sadly, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it, but Fish will be very much in my thoughts, and I’ll be raising a glass to celebrate his life.

Everybody who knew Paul loved him. His sharp wit never failed to make people smile, and his laugh was contagious and lit up the room. You will be missed by many. Thoughts to all his friends and family xx

I love you mate. Always will. The word devastated doesn’t seem strong enough, as I’m not sure I’ll ever recover properly…
I’ve known you as long as I’ve known myself. Since we were 2yrs old you’ve made me laugh more than anyone I’ve ever met.
You’re not supposed to go so soon, we had time and things to do. You had many more people to take the mick out of, more tales to embellish and we all had many more hilarious stories to write (and laugh about till we were old).
I’ll miss you every day buddy. We all will. We will always talk about you though, remembering our times together, so you’ll live on in us. I promise. We promise.
Love you mate. I really do.
Rest easy Fish.
