I was just searching to see if you were still working and saw that you had passed away. I worked with Paul at Hawke NZ for quite a few years. We had a lot of laughs and a few cricket and rugby games. Rest In Peace my old mate. My condolences to your family.

Paul at our Fathers Day Event

October 28, 2017

It is with much thankfulness that we remember Paul.
Paul and Mata joined us at Heart Kids Murmurs Coffee group a few times, where Paul told his story of growing up with a complicated heart condition. He also came and spoke at our Fathers Day event. Our parents drew much hope and strength from this and for that we are very grateful.
The beautiful heart jewelry is much admired and are timeless and meaningful keepsakes to be treasured.

Your kindness, wisdom and generosity will not be forgotten.

Wishing Mata, Paul, Nicole and families much strength. We're thinking of you.

I met Paul many years a go when I was a young jeweler. Over the years he was a great teacher and friend. There are good memories of fun times. One of the most important things he said to me was that there is no stress worth dyeing over. I have remembered his wise words and follow them still. He was a good, honorable, hard working man. He will be missed and not forgotten. I send my regards to Mata, Nicole and family.
