My sincere condolences to Paul’s family and friends. He was a guy that always put a smile on your face and knew how to have a good time. Paul will be missed and greatly remembered by many.
Our sincere condolences to the entire Marques family
I am so sad to learn of Paul’s passing. He was truly one of a kind– kind, generous, a great sense of humour, and a lover of animals. While we had lost touch in recent years because of distance and the busyness of life, I adored him and I have wonderful memories of time we spent together. Rest in peace, Papa.
My deepest condolences to Paul’s family and loved ones. Xo

“There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains.”
Yes, the world seems sadder now that you are not in it, it’s missing your kind eyes, your infectious smile, your hilarious jokes, and your enormous kind heart…but cousin, your bright light remains! Thank you for the unforgettable memories you gave us as kids when we moved here; you taking us trick-or-treating, convincing us to go on every ride at Wonderland, and my favourite, tobogganing at Sir Winston Churchill Park. I’ll look for you amongst the stars, until one day, in the clouds, we will meet again.
My sympathies to everyone who was lucky enough to have you in their lives. Wishing us all comfort, peace, courage and love.
My condolences to the family and friends. I will always think of you with a huge smile on your face, lighting up the room. Gone too soon. Rest In Peace papa.🙏❤️

You seen the beauty in the world. You could see and feel things many could not. Your Love for Animals, Lust for Adventure, Your gratitude and love of Mother Nature. Your desires for Photography, Music, Dance. You helped the helpless and defended the weak. Most of all your love for Children and Family and Faith.
Mamma, Armanda Marques being your rock was your world.
You brought a love too so many. Always making them feel welcome and on a pedestal. Your smile, your teddy bear hugs with the warmth you repelled. You were a natural healer. You fuelled and injected an energy and love to everyone you encountered.
You would light up a room as you entered. Your smile radiant and laughter contagious.
The word dull was not in his vocabulary.
He made everything fun. Even work.
People who got the privilege to have him in their life know what love is and feels like.
You always took care of others and made them feel safe.
You made people happy, your space was their safe place.
For you were Papa, Paul Marques.
You will forever be loved and not forgotten.
Rest in peace Paul.
You already had wings on earth. Heaven you can now fly.
Já tinha asas na Terra. O céu agora pode voar.
