Well it was only a few months ago Paul posted here to tell everyone of the passing of Kev Murphy.. well today it fills me with great sadness to tell you all Paul has passed away..

He was a quiet private man but if he let you in you were friends for life and I’m sure many will agree.. he had impeccable taste and a collection that was out of this world and will be missed terribly.

RIP Paul my mate I hope you and Kev are causing havoc up there (I’m sure you are)

Really sad news. Was shocked when I was told. Like you say mate a quiet and private man. Enjoyed many a long chat about various things in life with him but mainly/usually the music.

R.I.P. Paul

Great bloke and dj had plenty of memories from Lowton with Paul . Truely gutted rest in peace brother 🙏 💔

Big shock for me. He was recently at my house buying records.

RIP mate.

RIP Paul

another sad day - rip paul

Sad news indeed. A quiet, unassuming, no-nonsense guy. His stories about his struggles with his health would make your jaw drop. Paul was as genuine a man as you could wish to meet and he will be missed.

This is a shock, occasionally he would message me with excitement of his latest addition to his collection. Really sad news R.I.P Paul

RIP Paul

More sad news x

Truly sorry to hear this sad news.

Paul was a very nice guy with great musical taste, as many will testify..

Rest Easy Paul.

I heard on Friday at St Mary's that Paul was in hospital. A card went round to be signed at St Mary's and the Spitfire. But yesterday was sad to read that he'd died.

I only knew him at soul nights but he seemed a very nice guy. It's heartbreaking how many good folk we're losing.

RIP Paul Shirley.
