Paul worked for the Ford Motor Company Windsor Casting Plant for 26 years until he retired in 2009. He was a proud and active member of CAW Local 200 and served as the last Chairman of the Windsor Casting Plant. He loved taking in the scenery at the Colchester Harbour as well as a ride on his Harley where he would stop to join and visit friends at Shooters or CBG’S followed by a Tim Hortons coffee the next day.
