 2011 Pippen Reunion

Our beloved Paul Gissing, 62, of Fallbrook, California, passed away on Friday, October 4, 2019. Paul lived a rich and purposeful life.

Paul was born on January 27, 1957, to Graham and Jean Gissing in Manchester, England. After graduation, he worked as a carpenter, a skill he would take along his life's journey with great success.
Paul traveled to the United States in the '80s and loved it so much that he decided to make a life here.

Paul met his beloved wife, Virginia, while working in the car industry and they were married on April 10, 1999 in Raratonga, Cook Islands. Paul and Virginia started a thriving real estate investment company in San Clemente and together they relocated to Fallbrook to expand their company vision.

Unfortunately, reminds me of another sad occasion.

Five Girls 

Since I had all girls, I named them Emily Michael  (after my mother who died when I was 13 months old, and my best friend who was killed at 19. [Every time I'm in the area, I stop at Michael's grave and leave a beer, and fairly often I reflect back to the sad ride I had with his girlfriend, *Jaque, after the wreck. I remember I was working in Daddy's office  when mother came in and told me the news. I stood up, looked out the front screen door, and didn't understand why cars were still driving pass.
