Condolence: Mr. Lemire lived down Rockland Road from my home on Oakwood Avenue in Auburn. He was my Chemistry teacher his first year at Auburn High School, when I was a Junior. He was a wonderful teacher. If "Woopie Tech" had allowed females students, I'd have gone there and majored in chemistry. Mr. Lemire was a great teacher - and a great friend to his students. How dare he be done!!

Condolence: Paul, Pat, Charlotte and families

I am so sorry to hear about your Dads passing. I have so many fond and funny memories, of the many years spent with your family. I am blessed having been lucky enough to have shared lots of special moments with everyone.He was a great Dad, understanding no matter what happened. As long as no one was hurt, it could be fixed, I feel really lucky to have shared both of your parents..
I am so sorry.

Love Donna Norrman

Condolence: Dear Patty, Paul, and family I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.


Sincerely,

Condolence: Though our hearts are heavy and we are saddened by Fr. Paul's passing I know that we will all find solace knowing that he truly was a kind and gentle man. He was always there for "Us" when we were at our lowest and helped us heal in so many ways. May God Bless.

Condolence: Tom and I are parishioners at St Anne's Church. . Unfortunately for us Fr. Lemire's presence was all too short. His voice alone commanded your attention and the sermons, to the point, challenged your everyday lives! Selfishly, we will miss his presence up on the altar. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Lemire family.

Condolence: Pat, Ashlee, and family,
So sorry to hear of the loss of Fr. Paul; he was a wonderful man and we are grateful to have known him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

Lauria and Fred Tiberii

Condolence: It was an honor and privilege to have Fr. Lemire as our Chemistry teacher at Auburn High School back in 1980-81. He was always patient and kind toward each one of us. It was no surprise that he became a priest shortly after his wife passed away. His ministry had started when he became a teacher. My heart goes out to his family. Peace be with all of you.

P.S. Favorite memory... Mike C. picking up Fr. Lemire and wrestling him into the school elevator...we missed about 10min of class but gained a memory and love for Fr. Lemire that would last a lifetime! Thank you Fr. Lemire for putting up with us!

Condolence: I had the privilege of getting to know and love Fr. Paul at St. Joseph's in Auburn. At the time, I was the organist/music director and had frequent dealings with Fr. Paul. I often would fetch him coffee between Masses on a Sunday morning. I always enjoyed and remembered his sermons - stright to the point and to the heart. You will be missed, Fr. Paul. God speed you to His loving arms! My condolences to the entire Lemire family - of whom he was so proud.

Condolence: I had the pleasure of having Mr.(now Reverend) Lemire as a chemistry teacher for two years in a row. For someone like me who didn't even like science, let alone chemistry, he had a way of making the class very enjoyable. From his "Bumble of the Week" to his "Cultural Happenings",aka "holiday parties", he always made us laugh, and was an amazing teacher I will never forget.

Condolence: My heart goes out to Fr. Paul's family. Like hundreds of others, Mr. Lemire was my beloved Chemistry/Advanced Chemistry/ homeroom teacher at AHS. He was the only person who got away with calling me "Patty". He said Mass at Nichols College where I worked and where we re-connected again. He graciously said a memorial mass for my late husband during one of those masses. I truly believe he left this world a better place for being in it. You will be greatly missed.
