So very sorry to hear of Paul’s passing, Brenda, and tragically coming so soon after Bobby. We have just watched the service, what wonderful tributes to Paul. Take care, Brenda, our thoughts are with you and your family.

Such a beautiful send off for Number 2 (Tutu) from 7. A real inspiration to all he met or knew him well. Well spoken Brenda and Rochelle and family. Also his loving Brothers. At peace with number one. When we look to the sky, the ocean, or the eyes of his Children, Paul will be there.

Brenda and family-so sorry to hear of your loss back here in Urenui, Taranaki. Our sincerest condolences to you. Kind regards, Dennis and Evelyn Mills (Urenui)

Farewell Great-Uncle Paul, I will never forget in primary school when our classes were learning about flight. I wrote you a letter. You replied with the greatest enthusiasm, with drawings and depictions of airflow over the wings. Explaining how an ‘aeroplane’ was able to get into the air. You then invited our whole year groups (years 4&5?) to the airport, you organised the whole thing. We were able to go through the hangars, and even up the Air Control Tower! We learnt about call signs; pilot lingo. It was one of my favourite memories from primary school. I felt so cool, proud and empowered that my uncle did that for me and my schoolmates and my whole year group. It didn’t seem that long ago when I last saw you with that big grin on your face. Rest In Peace Uncle

Thanks, Paul, for over 50 years of friendship. Sincerely, Roger & Diana Hewett
