The family of one of the July 25 Langley shooting victims has begun fundraising online to create a foundation in memory of Paul Wynn, who was murdered in front of the Creek Stone Place building.

91裸聊视频淭his is a situation where we can91裸聊视频檛 just go on with our lives,91裸聊视频 said John Wynn, Paul91裸聊视频檚 brother.

Paul was one of four people shot, two fatally, between midnight and 5:45 a.m. on a Monday morning. Police identified the shooter as Jordan Daniel Goggin, 28. He was shot and killed by police that morning.

Paul was a Creek Stone resident, and part of the is intended to go towards a bronze plaque to be placed on the side of the Creek Stone building, commemorating Paul and the other victim who died, Steven Furness.

91裸聊视频淲e want Paul91裸聊视频檚 legacy to live on,91裸聊视频 said John.

For years, Paul had suffered from mental health and drug addiction issues.

But John wanted people to know that wasn91裸聊视频檛 his brother91裸聊视频檚 whole life.

Paul had started working years ago for a food supply company. He began working in the warehouse, taking graveyard shifts but making decent money and saving.

Eventually, he worked his way up to management at the firm. He had bought a $350,000 condo and was 91裸聊视频渟et for life.91裸聊视频

But John said his brother made a mistake with drugs, and that caused his life to spiral.

His company was supportive, offering financial help, and the firm and his family tried to get him into rehab. But at the time, Paul turned it down.

91裸聊视频淗e really thought everyone was out to get him,91裸聊视频 John said.

For two to three years, Paul lived on the streets. His family lost track of him several times, until they finally located him via the Salvation Army91裸聊视频檚 Gateway of Hope shelter in Langley.

91裸聊视频淭o see him living under a tarp, that91裸聊视频檚 just wrong,91裸聊视频 John said.

But Paul got off the streets thanks to Creek Stone opening in 2019. He was one of the earlier residents.

Creek Stone was designed to help the homeless and those at severe risk of homelessness. It is not a rehab program, but it has full-time, 24-hour staffing and is able to get people help and refer them to programs.

John has been told that Paul was outside tending to one of the building91裸聊视频檚 garden plots when he was attacked and shot.

The GoFundMe91裸聊视频檚 aim right now is to raise $25,000.

The funding will go towards a plaque at Creek Stone, helping the family with burial expenses, and any counselling needed for Paul91裸聊视频檚 son.

After that, the plan is to start a foundation in Paul91裸聊视频檚 name.

John said he was amazed at a recent, Aug. 3 vigil in Langley how many people said their lives had been touched by Paul91裸聊视频檚.

He91裸聊视频檚 worried the attacks will be dismissed because most of the victims were homeless.

91裸聊视频淭hese were not homeless people,91裸聊视频 he said. 91裸聊视频淭hese were people who were left out.91裸聊视频
