It is with profound sadness that the passing of Paul Felton, a valued business partner and dear friend, is announced. Paul left us at the young age of 47. His funeral is scheduled for Monday, September 30, at 1 p.m. at the Overdale Crematorium, West Chapel.
The bond between Paul and his colleague began nearly 25 years ago when they met while working at the doors of the Atlantis Nightclub. From that moment on, they forged a deep friendship, navigating both the highs and lows of life together. They shared the heartbreak of losing their parents within a short span, which they found particularly challenging as they focused on raising their children and becoming dedicated fathers.
Throughout their years of camaraderie, Paul and his friend created countless cherished memories, enjoying many lively nights out and unforgettable events. Known as the life of the party, Paul was always the one to bring joy and laughter. His commitment to his work was evident in the way he mentored young surveyors and garnered immense respect from bricklayers, ensuring everyone was paid punctually. His meticulous attention to detail allowed his colleague to focus on other aspects of the business without worry.
The loss of Paul is not only a personal tragedy but also a significant blow to Chris Ashton Brickwork Ltd. The heartfelt condolences and kind words from friends and colleagues highlight the esteem in which Paul was held by many.
As friends and family gather on Monday to pay their respects, it will be a fitting send-off for a man who touched so many lives. Rest in peace, dear friend. Your daily encouragement and gentle reminders to stay grounded will be sorely missed.
