Grandfather of Joshawa, Daniel, Mia, Marco, Elizabeth, Sawyer. He will be missed by his siblings, Larry (Roseanne) Pickett of Port Elgin and Nancy Pickett of London. Predeceased by his parents, Ken and Dorothy Pickett. Paul owned and operated a men’s clothing store on Queen Street in downtown Kincardine for 32 years. He played hockey for the Kincardine Old Stars for 30 years and enjoyed baseball and golf. He was well-known in the business community in Kincardine and would always take the time to chat whenever he came across a familiar face around town. His pride and joy was a Train Caboose located on a 96-acre property near Kincardine where he gardened, had campfires, walked through the trails, and cut firewood. When Paul retired in 2002, his passion turned to travel. He travelled to most countries in the world and worked as a volunteer in Haiti, Dominican Republic, Malawi, and Bolivia. A Celebration of Life for Paul will be held Saturday, April 27, 2024, at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 183, Kincardine. The times for the event will be announced through his memorial page when available. As expressions of sympathy, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario would be appreciated by the family.
