It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of Illustrious Sir Paul Curran, Past Potentate and longtime Recorder of Emirat Shriners. Ill Sir Paul was not only a founding member of Emirat but also a true embodiment of the principles we hold dear.
For many years, he served as Recorder with dedication far beyond what was required, managing countless responsibilities with grace and passion. His love for our noble cause and his commitment to our mission were evident in every action he took.
Ill Sir Paul was a beacon of fun and fellowship, traveling to many locations and fostering the bonds of brotherhood wherever he went. His warm spirit, wisdom, and unwavering directness will be sorely missed but fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
As we honor his legacy, let us strive to emulate his commitment to our Shrine Temple and his passion for service.
Details regarding memorial arrangements will follow in due course. In the meantime, please keep Ill Sir Paul’s family in your thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow.
