Paul Dossman, KC Automotive GM

The team at Jobber News was saddened to learn of the passing of Paul Dossman, general manager of KC Automotive, a jobber operation in Owen Sound, Ont.

Dossman died in a scuba diving accident in Cuba while vacationing with his wife, Dawn, and friends February 24.

Dossman was a committed and tireless worker for the automotive industry. One project that was near and dear to Dossman’s heart was inspiring and promoting youth to pursue careers in the industry. With that in mind, a fund has been created so that his efforts can continue. Money collected will be held in a trust and grants will be given to provide scholarships to high schools in Grey and Bruce Counties to students who are planning to go into post-secondary education in an automotive-related field.

He is survived by wife and best friend Dawn, children Arron and Shantelle, Ryan and Jessie and grandchild Liam.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that a contribution be made to the “Paul and Dawn Dossman Family Everlasting Fund.” Donations can be made online at www.communityfoundationgreybruce.com, or by cheque made payable to Community Foundation Grey Bruce, P.O. Box 81, Owen Sound, ON N4K 5P1. On the memo line, please indicate “Paul and Dawn Dossman Family Everlasting Fund.”
