Pauls Desson-Baxter Funeral

Paul Desson-Baxter, former chair of Coventry Pride, suddenly passed away on 7th August, he was 39. Terry his life partner of 14 years and his pet Dashund "Red" were by his side.

Paul was more than just a friend to many; he was a beacon of hope, love, and unwavering support for the LGBTQ+ community in Coventry. As one of the founding members of Coventry Pride, Paul's tireless activism and dedication helped shape our community, creating safe spaces and empowering countless individuals to live their lives. His legacy of compassion and courage will continue to inspire us all ️‍✨

My name is Jemma and I am fund raising for my brother Terry, Paul's life partner, to help relieve some of the inevitable financial pressures Terry will indeed face as he plans the funeral for his beloved Paul who was by his side for 14 years. Money raised will help with the funeral and other costs allowing Terry to grieve.

Many of you will have memories of Paul, or his love and support may have touched you at some point. If you can, give what you can, and let's give Paul the send off he deserves.
