Mr Guy Sitwell

Paul was a true gentleman, loved and respected by many people. He became, with Ros, a good friend to me and to my late husband. We four shared happy times together, on land - and on water, on board 'Chase the Bubble'. He was knowledgeable in so many areas, always interesting - and a gracious and generous host. I know that Paul will be very much missed, not only by his family, but by all those who had the pleasure and privilege of knowing him, and spending time with him. I, personally, shall greatly miss his company and my thoughts and prayers are with Ros, Briony, Dan and Charlotte, and his six grandchildren.

Mrs Pauline Moore
