Paul Francies

Born in Middlesex, England, Paul moved to Canada in 1990 and worked for many years with Rogers. His true love, however, was the stage, and he was a regular at Herongate Barn Theatre.

Paul leaves behind his beloved daughter Nikki, her partner Gary; stepsons Tomas (Amanda) and Alexander (Karen), and his three step-grandchildren, Bronwyn, Garrett and Piper. He will also be missed by his partner, Christine, as well as by many friends.

Paul brought brightness to others in every way, whether through a smile at his outlandish, flashy fashion, a sense of joy experiencing his zest for life, a laugh induced by his infectious chuckle, or being enthralled by his stage presence.

A Celebration of Life was held at Herongate Barn Theatre on Tuesday, March 14. In lieu of flowers or cards, we ask those so inclined to please make a donation to Oak Ridges Hospice in memory of Paul. He spent the last days of his life there with care and dignity.

“The curtain calls - we will forever remember your time in our lives."
