I remember you well from Aylesbury Grammar School and feel so sad that our re-connection on social media after so many years has been cut cruelly short. You were always a gentleman and joy to be around and our loss is heaven's gain. Rest well Sir.

Such a wonderful person to know, he was a pleasure to work with, a lover of life and of people , he will always be up there with the best. Chris Murley

Just about to set off to say goodbye Paddy, seems the right time to write this. Thanks for some unbelievable memories. From watching Giles keel over at Stone School on hearing about the number of peppermint creams Theresa Farrant made. To when visiting you at Oxford and the first thing you asking when you stirred was how I was. A man who was passionate about everything. Humour, his work and the exhibition industry, his friends and of course his family Watching you fight ‘old boy’ has been inspirational and I will hold on to that forever. May you rest in peace my friend, it’s a pleasure to have had you as a friend Roo xx

Ah, Paddy. This day has come. We talked about it and many other aspects relating to your cancer over coffee (me) peppermint tea (you) in the cafe in Marlow, Satollo over the last 4 years. I am a new friend. Only been in Marlow for 8 years. But I work for the NHS so we were able to have conversations about what was going on. You were mostly angry about what was going on. I was angry too. But I listened to how much you wanted to fight for as long as you could for Ali, Ed and Jess. Your passion and conviction for these three most important people in your world was awesome. You were awesome. In your courage, in your determination and in your immense love for your family. I have nothing but overwhelming admiration for the way you and your family went through this journey together. It taught me many things. But perhaps the single, most important thing was to be true to yourself. Because that’s what you remained. As a father and husband. I know your journey will go on and on as you will be talked about and honoured in the many future generations ahead of you. But today, I wish you the all peace you deserve at the end of such an exhausting fight. Sleep well, my friend. Melinda

Dear Paddy. I have the fondest of memories of you at my early days at Nomadic. Those were some of the best times ever and some of the greatest characters I've worked with. You will be remembered for your wit, being a truly genuine guy loved by all who worked with you. I will always remember your no expense spared 30th party. What a night that was. Sending my heart felt condolences to Ali, Ed and Jess and all your family and close friends. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten. RIP dear Paddy. X

Take care Pads we never did have the catch up coffee. One day we will X

Paddy all the words your great friends have written sum up what an absolutely top man you are and it has been my privilege to be your friend over the last 30 odd years. We met through business and despite the difficulties and challenges we had you always had a smile on your face and remained positive. You are a lovely man who has lit up the lives of many and who until the last was always listening,giving and supporting. We will miss you hugely. Rest in peace my friend. Jamie
