Absolutely shocked and saddened to hear that Paul has passed away. I also worked under Paul's leadership at Margaret McMillan. I am yet to meet another amazing head like him - he was the best. Paul was like a father figure and an amazing soul. He was so proud of me when I secured my leadership post - his little protégé he called me! Every year, I would text him a 'many happy returns of the day' message and he would respond. This year, I was unable to do so - who knew I would never get another opportunity to do so. Deepest condolences to his loved ones. You will be missed immensely Paul. ❤

I am shocked and heart broken. I worked At Margaret McMillan whilst Paul was a headteacher. An amazing person and the best headteacher I have worked with. My deepest condolences to his loved ones. Rest in peace Paul. You will be deeply missed. Xx

I am very sad.. My friend Paul, you were everything to me in my life (my father, my brother, my friend, and my lover). You always helped me and stood by my side, listening to me, advising me, inspiring me, and giving me hope. I did not meet you, but I learned from you patience, hope, and happiness. I learned to love others without regard to their affiliation or Their religion or color taught me that goodness is a human duty. I feel alone without you, my friend Paul. I loved everything about you. I don’t know how I will be able to face life without you. I will never forget you as long as I live. You will remain in my heart, living forever..your friend Nassar.
