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.

害羞草研究所淭his is a situation where we can害羞草研究所檛 just go on with our lives,害羞草研究所� said John Wynn, Paul害羞草研究所檚 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.

害羞草研究所淲e want Paul害羞草研究所檚 legacy to live on,害羞草研究所� said John.

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

But John wanted people to know that wasn害羞草研究所檛 his brother害羞草研究所檚 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.

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.

害羞草研究所淗e really thought everyone was out to get him,害羞草研究所� 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 Army害羞草研究所檚 Gateway of Hope shelter in Langley.

害羞草研究所淭o see him living under a tarp, that害羞草研究所檚 just wrong,害羞草研究所� 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 building害羞草研究所檚 garden plots when he was attacked and shot.

The GoFundMe害羞草研究所檚 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 Paul害羞草研究所檚 son.

After that, the plan is to start a foundation in Paul害羞草研究所檚 name.

John said he was amazed at a recent, Aug. 3 vigil in Langley how many people said their lives had been touched by Paul害羞草研究所檚.

He害羞草研究所檚 worried the attacks will be dismissed because most of the victims were homeless.

害羞草研究所淭hese were not homeless people,害羞草研究所� he said. 害羞草研究所淭hese were people who were left out.害羞草研究所�
