Paul you were so courageous & brave in your fight against cancer.You are an absolute inspiration to us all.Your spirit will continue to thrive in your beautiful daughter Evie Rose.Your death has made me put a lot of things into perspective,I now value the important things that I did take for granted.And I also tend not to worry now about the things that are less important in life.A year on does'nt time fly.I hope you have found your peace now where ever you are and I would just like you to know that I will never forget you.It just goes to show how cruel life can be,that sometimes people are'nt destined for a life of longevity or such great things.

With much love to you, Lindsey,Evie & Family.......

Godbless xxxxxx.

Such Courage

I have always enjoyed watching Paul playing snooker and was saddened by his untimely death. My niece bought me `unbreakable ` for my birthday. I read it today in one sitting,and was amazed by the courage he showed during his illness and subsequent treatment. Lindsay ,Evie and all his family must be really proud of him. Snooker has lost a great player and a very loveable young man. God Bless You Paul

Beautiful angel

I don't know how I do it, but every day I think about you, every day you are in my mind and I feel very good coming here after a long day at work and read all these beautiful things that people say about you.You are an example for all of us , that no matter what happens to us we must go on.You knew what was going on with you and you didn't give up, you stood up for everything with a smile on your face.Why shouldn't we?
I only wish we could learn more from you and from everything that happened to you and fight to become a better person.
Even though I never met you , I love you and you will always be in my heart and in my head telling me'Don't give up!'
Sleep well beautiful angel

wow

I'm not sure how I ended up thinking about snooker but every time I do it reminds me of Paul. I was reading the tributes and looking at the dates of some of them written was overwhelming, I think it just shows that neither Paul or his family have been forgotten over this last year and that's a tribute to him in itself. He obviously made a massive impact on many and in such a short time.

He will never be forgotten and neither will Lyndsey, you've been inspirationally brave through the hardest times. I really hope you're coping and having some great times with your little daughter.

God bless.

Fara tine Paul snookerul a saracit
. Dar probabil undeva in ceruri cu tacul in mana Paul exerseaza la masa. pentru totdeauna in memoria mea.

Surreal

It still seems surreal that a young man with the snooker world at his feet and a loving family was taken away so soon. Sometimes I fail to understand how life works. I cannot imagine how hard it must have been to know that you were not to see your child grow up. You remained indignant throughout and I have nothing but respect for you. As a father of two, I cannot imagine how much you hurt inside. God rest your soul. Snooker is a emptier place without you.
