With heavy hearts, we announced the passing of Paul Sleeba Collins. On December 29th, he passed away unexpectedly in the place he loved the most, with his best buddy Zenna by his side.

He is predeceased by his parents, Olive and Obadiah Collins. Left with fond and loving memories, his wife Bride Children Rebecca (Shayne) , Brett (Mackenzie) Laura (Mark), Morris (Jillian).

He was especially proud of his grandchildren Chantelle (Matt), Samantha (Bob), and Wyatt along with great grandchildren, Grayson, Ryker, Emerson, and Adalynn.

He is also survived by his loving siblings Eileen (Mike) & Connie (Matt) as well as nephews Jeff (Brenda), Jason (Christina), and niece Victoria (Jason). Also, his best friend Zenna.

Paul was a man whose life was full of adventure- from hunting and fishing, rides on skidoo to going out in boat. He was a passionate storyteller who captured your attention from the start of every story, keeping you on the edge of your seat. Above everything else, his greatest joy was making memories with his wife, kids and family.

Though deeply missed, we take comfort in knowing he is no longer in pain and can now rest in eternal peace while reunited with loved ones gone before him.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to assist the family, if you would like to send an e-transfer please send it to connie652008@live.ca.

Public visitation will take place from Gordon Woolfrey Funeral Home, 262 Main Street, Lewisporte on Friday, January 2, 2026 from 7-9 PM. The Funeral Service for both Paul and his dad, Obadiah will take place from the Salvation Army Citadel, Lewisporte on Saturday, January 3, 2026 at 11 AM.
