Just found out that we lost Paul Reibin the other day.
Paul had been battling cancer for many years. But always kept a positive attitude.
A real old school gentleman and shooter, an icon in the Palma and Fclass world!
We will see you on the other side, Good Sir.....

Paul was also a good friend to Farky and helped him popularize F-class. After Farky died, the SPRA scheduled a match at Burdick Range. Everyone with a .308 rifle was invited to fire Paul's reloads of Farky downrange. I smile at the fond memory.
 
Another reminder that we don't last forever. My generation are now the old guys, I guess. I think Paul was the last of his generation of the shooting scene in Kamloops. I had not spoken with him for a few years and am reminded that times does fly by.
 
I first met and shot with Paul at the Nationals in Ottawa years ago at the Fclass 223 Remington competition. I always looked forward to meeting him in Ottawa and catching up.

I will miss him, RIP Mr Reibin and thanks for your help and encouragement along the way.
