Paul’s funeral was packed, with many people standing outside. I stood with Martin Lynch and we shared a few humorous memories of Paul during the service. We had worked together at Romsley for many years.
Paul was one of the best technicians I knew and was respected by everyone he came into contact with.
He went from being a superb radio man to mastering the early digital technology used in VDUs operated by WMP, and used those skills to help others, often with the curious faults which defeated us mere mortals on the Mascot 1000 remote operator position in Birmingham. Later in his DTELS career he managed local major projects out of Romsley.
After leaving RY Paul worked for Laney Amplifiers close to where he lived in the Black Country. He will be missed.
