Reply With QuoteI am glad Paul got the send off I am sure he would have wanted; and I am glad it was supported by members of the forum attending.
Thank you for posting the details and photo Eddie.
Today we said goodbye to a founder member of the forum and friend to many. The chapel was packed and Paul's father delivered a eulogy which was both moving and funny, just how Paul would have liked. We entered the chapel to Motorhead's "Killed By Death" and left to Lemmy's slow version of "Ace of Spades". I thought it typical that Paul would have a black coffin ;-).
The forum was represent by Ralphy, Pauluspaolo and myself.
Requiescat in pace Paul.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

It's just a matter of time...
A sad day but I am glad it had humour and a rock soundtrack to him off. Sorry I couldn't make it

Eddie and entourage thanks for going and representing so many of us both old and new on the forum.
Some may know some & may not but been in the Funeral business more or less all my life and it still rips you a new one when its personal.
R I P Mr Crowley, sleep well.
I FEEL LIKE I'M DIAGONALLY PARKED IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE

“Don’t look back, you’re not heading that way.”
fare well.
Rest in Peace Paul.
I didn't know him but clearly highly thought of by many on here.
Rest in Peace
Gentlemen, thank you for attending.
RIP.
I didn't know Paul, but it is clear he was well regarded... so I guess that is my loss.
Exactly my sentiment.
F.T.F.A.

RIP Mr. Crowley...
Adding my thanks to Eddie et al for representing us.
I'm glad Paul got the send off that he wanted.
RIP
Those that attended- thanks for representing the forum.
Bye Paul. The forum is a poorer place without you.
Never had any dealings or exchanges with Paul but felt I knew him somewhat through his posts and presence here. Feel genuinely sad reading this thread.
RIP sir.
As a fellow Motörhead fan who also lost a (different) dear friend this week I can only say rest in peace.
This is a great forum so all the best to you all in these sad times.
Always so sad. RIP.
Goodbye, Paul.
Exactly so, he will be missed.
Thank you Eddie for that and may Paul rest in peace. Always will be remembered here.

Farewell Paul. Going to play No Sleep 'tll Hammersmith now, love that live album.
Sounds like he went off the way he would have wanted to go. Rocking til the end.
He had a lot to put up with, but always had time to spark the place up, from what little I knew of him around here.
Gone but definitely not forgotten.
Thankyou again those who attended on our behalf.
A sad day. RIP Paul.
Eddie, Ralphy and Pauluspaolo, thank you sincerely for being there on behalf of everyone on this great forum.
Couldn't have said it better.
Thanks for this thread, Eddie.
So glad the forum where Paul was held in such high esteem was represented by our friends who attended.
RIP Paul.
Cheers,
Neil.
The friends and family know of the enjoyment that Paul had of watches and of being part of this forum and on their wishes all the messages of condolences that have been posted here were printed off and a copy accompanied Paul in his casket.
Paul was a very special person, both my wife and I thought the world of him and he lives on in our hearts.

Ignorance breeds Fear. Fear breeds Hatred. Hatred breeds Ignorance. Break the chain.
I'm glad to see he got the send off he would have liked.
Going out to Motorhead - pure style.
RIP indeed.
I went for the Lemmy look but draw the line at black hair dye.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
That is very heartwarming to hear. I'm glad his family got to understand how well and widely Paul was regarded on this forum. Both the messages and the presence of forum members (and founder) speaks volumes about this place.
RIP my friend, I will miss you.
What a great way to go Paul! Thanks for attending Eddie and for letting us know
I'm glad there was a forum presence at the funeral, Paul will be missed.

A fitting send off, RIP Paul.
Thanks for the update.
Requiescat in pace
I didn't know him, my loss I think, but remember seeing his posts. It looked like a good send off, my friend also went out to "Ace of Spades".
RIP Mr Crowley
Bought a couple of watches from Mr Crowley. He always made sure the deal was in favour of the buyer. Rest in Peace!
Eddie! Thanks for attending and posting this thread.
Just saw the thread. RIP Paul.
