Grandad’s funeral was so beautiful and sad.
.
You will be missed 💕
.
Paul Autry Foster, beloved husband of Elsie Foster, passed away on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at the age of 83. He was taken away from us suddenly.
Paul was a skilled welder who immigrated from Trinidad and Tobago in 1970 and contributed to Alberta’s oil and gas industry. He worked most of his career for Enerflex as a skilled pipefitter and spent most of his time in Fort McMurray and surrounding locations.
Paul was a musician and played the guitar in his calypso band. He would express his love by always playing his music collection during family gatherings. He was an avid sports fan and loved hockey, fontand wrestling, to name a few. by @colours_perez
