dear Patricia and Mick,
i believe that i can say for everybody here that you are not bothering us at all. on the contrary, everybody who has apprecciated Paul has to thank you too for that chance.
about the wreaths the english persons here are the best to answer you, but i'll gladly help you for the image posting matter, just let us know.

Patricia & Mick

You are both more than welcome to visit us here at EAB anytime you like, any member of Pauls family is a member of our own family

I will discuss with DamienD the arrangement for the wreathe to be sent to the undertakers directly. Anything else we do we will arrange for you to be involved if you so wish.

Regards

Mark

I've changed the thread title now that the wreathe has been sent

Title was: Donations & Contributions to Pauls wreath

changed to : Donations & Contributions to Pauls memory

I hope this is okay with everyone, I feel it fits the thread better and leaves it open if anyone else would like to contribute.

Just to let you know, your beautiful wreath and message arrived safely. Thanks to all of you at EAB. Unfortunately our photo didn't do it justice, but the wreath was just as nice, if not nicer than the image above.

We were so overwhelmed by all your messages that we printed them out and these were displayed at the service amongst other items relating to Paul's life. Everyone was touched and amazed by your remarks from all over the world. You have stepped from a virtual community into reality and restored faith, for a lot of people, that people from all walks of life, throughout the world, can think as one and live together in peace. Good on you EAB.

Both services were very well attended and some lovely tributes were paid to him. He had a good send off and we are sure his UFO landed safely in Amigaland! Thanks again EAB!

Patricia & Mick (Paul's parents)

I am soooooooooooooo glad you let us know how it went. I appreciate it must be a bit 'alien' to you (excuse the pun) to come on here and explain to people who've never really met Paul in person, but I am (as I'm sure others are) very happy to know he had a good send of.

I can say for myself that it was no problem whatsoever contributing to Paul's wreath/memory and must thank DamienD for taking the lead and doing us proud.

Paul will be remembered well on EAB, as I'm sure he will by you and your family. Thanks for taking the time to let us know, and I hope you are all as well as you can be.
