Paul "PJ" James Molloy

It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of our father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend on June 29, 2018 after a courageous and dignified battle with cancer. Paul leaves to mourn his son Richard (Jodi) Molloy, Langley, B.C., son in law Terry Lamontagne, Thompson, MB, grandchildren: Brian and Isaiah Lamontagne, Amber, Rachel and Christopher Molloy and great grandchildren Madison and Jaxon Kennedy.   He is survived by his sister Elizabeth Boardman.

He was predeceased by his parents: Florence and Edward Molloy; wife Elizabeth Molloy and his daughter Christine Lamontagne.  

Paul was born in St. John's, Nfld on July 6, 1945, the fourth of five children. He met and married his wife, Elizabeth, on June 3, 1968. Christine came along in 1970 and Richard in 1973. In 1974 the family moved to Thompson where Paul had begun working for Inco, and settled into life in the north, becoming part of a growing community.

Paul was very active in the community both on a personal level and for the good of the community. He volunteered tirelessly for the Kidney Foundation. He spent countless years in the rink with minor hockey and the North Stars. Every year when the snow had melted enough to get a round in, you would find Paul at the Golf Club. In his later years he was very active with the Air Port Authority.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made in Paul’s memory to the Neepawa Bird Sanctuary. It was one of Paul’s favorite places to visit.      

The family would like to thank all the nurses and staff at the Neepawa Health Centre and most of all the nurses and staff at Country Meadow’s Evergreen Wing who always took the best care of Paul.
