Paul Harris (25 Jun 1943 - 8 Dec 2023)

Oh, Paul, I only found out today that you had passed on. How sad it has made me feel in contrast to your wonderful "Big Laughter Show"s that you did in Margate. I remember how elated I felt leaving the theatre like nothing else I had experienced before. It was sad when you stopped doing them.

That wasn't the first time we met, though, as you were the Patron of the Alpha Theatre Company in Chatham. I am so grateful to you for casting me as King Rat in Dick Whittington in 1989. It changed my outlook towards panto.

I was wondering what you had been doing with yourself recently and had hoped to find you to autograph your book. I wasn't to be. Rest in peace, Paul. I shall light a candle for you.

In memory of Paul - a lovely friend who gave us many laughs over the years.

Im so sorry I missed Paul's funeral due to the amount of traffic on the 249 and making me late im upset that I couldn't make it my apologies ray

Paul was such a wonderful chap - and a great comedian. I intend to be there to pay my respects.

Thanks for your friendship, advice and support. Many happy memories of time spent in your company and watching you perform on stage. The laughter you have given to so many will still be remembered even though you are no longer with us.
Rest in peace Paul x

Paul, Upon relocating to Sheppey in 2006 I immediately fell in love with your Sunday radio show. I never imagined I’d also have the privilege of working alongside you and later become your friend. I shall miss our coffee & gossips, days out, and your cheeky humour. Rest in peace friend X

A dear friend, I miss you dearly 💔

Paul was my mentor and friend we restored the Criterion Music Hall together.
The team at the Criterion send our love and he will always be a part of what we do.

Dear Paul rest in peace always in my thoughts Brian pollard

In memory of a dear brother and uncle. Rest in peace Paul.
Carol, Richard, Phillip and Andrew Hetherington

In memory of a wonderful man and a best friend who made us laugh and always had a twinkle in his eye. We will miss you loads. XxxX

Thank you for caring and supporting Paul. He appreciated everything you did for him, and for the fun and laughter.

Over 50 years as friends, thanks for the great memories of working with you in panto and summer season, all the fun and laughter and the name you gave me 'KOSHER'. Although you've exited stage left, see you in the wings pal.
