dewlineSome of you remember him for his novels. Some for his TV work, particularly Due South and Power Play scripts. And as the CBC obituary notes, there's a tonne of other stuff he had a hand in over the years.
I met him briefly once or twice in the course of my volunteer duties with the Ottawa International Writers Festival. I can at least say that I was able to thank him for the work that I saw on the TV screen. For that, I'm glad. I'm sorry that we won't be seeing anything more from his keyboard, or hearing his singing voice in anything not already pre-recorded. He was a joy to watch and learn from in person.
I'm sorry for the pain his closer friends and family must now be dealing with.
Thanks again, Paul. For everything.
