Paul has had an amazing business career in marketing some of the world's largest consumer brands including McDonalds, Burger King and Snickers. He has had lot of fun in growing large and small organisations even setting up his own business to launch into Australia an amazing soft drink brand from Scotland called Irn-Bru.
While his life has been filled with the ups and downs of life, the real crunch came last year when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer a few days after his youngest daughter's wedding. From an incredible high of the wedding to a few days later to be told he had suspected prostate cancer certainly gave him and his family quite a hit.
To add to the challenge, his employers decided they felt he could no longer effectively perform his role to the required standards and ended his job. Then began an incredibly challenging year for Paul and his family, including major surgery, the sale of their family home, a beautiful wedding, the birth of their third grandchild and the news of another one on the way.
He has a beautiful family with his wife Janine and two daughters Jordon and Ashlyn and their respective husbands. He has three grandkids with another on the way.
Along with a love of God, these things are what keep him going everyday through the tough times and the amazingly good.
