It is with profound sadness that we share the peaceful passing of Paul Weber Alexander in his 82nd year, on May 25, 2024.
Predeceased by his cherished wife of 40 years, Linda, Paul is survived by his devoted companion, Georgina, who brought laughter and love for 17 years. Paul leaves behind his pride and joy and beloved sons, Steven (Adrienne) and David (Danielle), dear sister Mary (Mike Miller) and brother Clare (Suzie). He was a proud grandfather to Trysten, Liam, Lucy and Callan who will always remember his stories, smile and kind heart. He will be missed greatly by his nieces and nephews, his many friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Born in Collingwood to the late Earl and Opal Alexander, and then moved to Barrie in 1979. Paul spent his working years at Molson Brewery and Moonstone Mechanical in Barrie. He was a member of the Barrie Legion where he spent many days enjoying the company of his friends. He was also a Mason with the Corinthian Lodge.
He grew up playing hockey and was an avid Canadiens fan, sharing a rivalry with the many Maple Leafs fans in his family. He loved watching his grandsons play hockey and was their biggest fan. He spent many special moments with his granddaughters enjoying the simple things, like ice cream or a funny show. He enjoyed time golfing with his sons and his friends, spending many winters golfing in the south. Above all else, Paul was a giving and selfless man who would drop anything to help another person if they needed it. His legacy will never be forgotten.
A Celebration of Paul’s Life will be held on Saturday, June 8, 2024 at the Barrie Legion, (410 St. Vincent St, Barrie, ON) from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Speaking remarks will be at 2:00 p.m. A private interment will be held at Stayner Union Cemetery.

Posted on: Wednesday, May 29, 2024Have many lasting unforgettable memories of the wonderful times we had with Paul, Linda, Steven, David on Belmont Crescent, Midhurst.
Paul: never have known a chap and neighbour who was so considerate, caring, and helpful to our family. A “get ‘er done’ guy who literally would give you the shirt off his back (as the old saying goes). Have so missed connecting since moving back to St. Thomas 18 years ago in 2006.
My sincere condolences Steve & Dave.

Posted on: Friday, May 31, 2024Hey Steve & Family, please accept my condolences and take your time to think about all the great memories that were built between you, your family and your dad. From reading the his bio, I have no doubt that there were some exciting nights cheering on the Habs and enjoying the fruits of his labor from the Molson’s Brewery days!
Once again, definitely thinking of you and your family, see you soon. Matt

Posted on: Friday, May 31, 2024Paul was an amazing man. A rock. Whenever I was in his company at the Barrie Legion, I felt that he cared about me and what I had to say. And he was a do’er. His actions always spoke louder than his words. And I feel the same about his wonderful partner, Georgina! Wat a great team. So long Paul. It was my pleasure to have known you.

Posted on: Tuesday, June 4, 2024Sorry to hear of Paul’s passing. He was always fun to be around, telling stories or making jokes. I never heard him say a bad word about anyone. Paul was a great man.

Posted on: Thursday, June 6, 2024Paul was possibly the nicest person I have known. He always treated myself, my wife and our children like we were his family. He was tremendously generous to all and especially my children. Even when he was struggling near the end, during our visits he was good company. He and my mother, Georgina, had fun right to the end. It was always a great pleasure to see how good Paul and my mother were to and for each other. We all miss him. We want to send our condolences to his family, his friends and of course my mother.
Rest In Peace Paul, you deserve everything good the here after holds.
Theodore, Emily, Sabrina and Mathew
