CintiPam Posted March 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Frequent Oceania board poster Paulchili, San Francisco Bay area, died on March 17, 2022. I never met Paul in person but when I started cruising over a decade ago, Paul generously provided me with accurate factual information regarding Oceania and many European ports I visited on Oceania cruises. I had hoped to meet him on an Oceania cruise but I never did. As is often said in my tradition, may his memory always be for a blessing. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul had a great wealth of detail on ships and of cuisine on them We would trade cooking and other barbs but he was a gentleman to say the least.. We all share in the fruits of his knowledge and too share in the grief of his loss.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgg Posted March 20, 2022 #6 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Paul was always the voice of reason on this board as well as on others. His advice was factual, thorough, and kind. We cruised with him on Azamara and enjoyed his positive attitude and adventurous spirit. His memory is indeed a blessing to those who knew him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbb Posted March 20, 2022 #19 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Paul and Don Horner were my two go-to guys on this forum. I am heartbroken to hear that Paul is gone. I hope that somehow his family hears how much he meant to so many of us. I am truly devastated by this news. Thanks to CintiPam for telling us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoverian Posted March 20, 2022 #20 Share Posted March 20, 2022 A very generous and kind man. We have always cherished the time that we spent with Paul and Marsha and were talking only days ago about finding out if they will be on any of our upcoming cruises. Thanks for wonderful memories, Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

su-arizona Posted March 21, 2022 #25 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Paul & Don Horner made CC the place to be for Oceania cruisers. Their knowledge and helpful posts kept us here looking for the info they so gladly dispensed. We miss them and the joy they shared with so many of us over the years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
