After a short but courageous battle with cancer, Paul William Risebrough passed away peacefully on April 27, 2026, at Credit Valley Hospital, surrounded by his loving family, at the age of 62. Always loved and will be missed dearly by his wife Donna-Marie (nee Browning), his children Brandon (Brishayna Brown), Kaitlyn (Alex Pontieri), Jordan, and his granddaughter Coralie and grandson Corbyn, expected this summer. Also remembered by his brothers David (Judy), Michael (Susan), sisters-in-law Louise Costa (late Albert), Lisa Michael (Wayne), and Suzanne Wright (Tim). Cherished uncle of Melissa, Jamie, Megan, Hannah, Grace, Shannon, Brooke, Joshua, Jeffrey, Zackery, Stephanie, and Jason. Missed by his precious cats, Louie and Bella. Predeceased by his parents Dorothy and Gordon Risebrough, father-in-law Walter Browning, mother-in-law Grace Browning, and sister-in-law Janice Corrigan.
Paul found his greatest joy in time spent with his family, whether on camping trips, summer days at the cottage, ATVing, or visiting the family farm. Arguably the biggest fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs, he stood by his team through every win and loss, with a patience and pride that family and friends couldn’t help but smile about. Paul had a way of bringing people together through laughter, good conversation, and his famously creative games. He dedicated 38 years to Dairy Farmers of Ontario, most recently serving as Associate Director of Logistics. His remarkable dedication to the dairy industry was evident throughout his life. Paul’s warmth, humour, and generous spirit touched everyone around him, and he will be truly missed.
