PAUL DOUGLAS HAZELTON REYKDAL

(aka PAPA PAUL)

April 16, 1943 - September 26, 2021

Paul peacefully passed away in his sleep, at home, on Sunday, September 26,2021. He was 78.


He leaves behind his wife of 34 years, Barb Schott; their children, Tod (Caroline) Reykdal, Chris Reykdal, Christine Schott and Jeff (Jodi) Schott; as well as his precious grandchildren, Jade and Dylan Reykdal, Paige and Sarah Schott, and Amber, Eddie, Aspen, and Ryder Schott.

Paul was born in Winnipeg to Kathryn and Paul “Valdi” Reykdal. He was predeceased by his parents; stepmother Jean; sister Janet; and brother David (who he shared a close bond with).

Paul had a successful career in media sales. He developed many long-term relationships with his colleagues and clients at CFRW/Q94 radio, and CKND television. In his retirement years at the beach, he loved working and playing golf at Grand Pines Golf Course.

Paul enjoyed many sports including curling, skiing, baseball, and golf. (Hole in one at Breezy Bend). He also loved to read, and spent many hours with his crossword puzzles.

Over their 43 years together Paul and Barb enjoyed hosting many family and friend get-togethers, the great trips to Mexico, and those golfing/shopping getaways.

Paul had an easy-going personality and a great smile that will be missed by all.

A private family celebration of his life will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Cancer Care Manitoba in his memory.
