Paul Crout Memorial

New posts

Beach Comber
A wonderful chef and an even more wonderful friend passed away earlier this month. Paul was well known along this beautiful coast, first as the chef of Bud and Alley's, followed by many other gastronomical experiments that touched and fed so many.

If we all had a B-side, then Paul's would be as a spotted seatrout intellectual, a.k.a. "the trout whisperer". That boy could catch some fish let me tell you!

His passing is grieved by many and his life will be celebrated by all those whose lives and palates he tickled throughout his years.

A gathering in memoriam has been scheduled for this coming Wednesday, July 25th - 6:00 PM - at Paul's favorite fishing spot - "the small bridge" on the north end of the 331 causeway. We will gather at the southwest quadrant of this famed fishing hole and you are encouraged to come as early as you like and wet a line, Paul's old stand-by was a live shrimp under a popping cork!!

Paul' immediate family, and his daughter sweet Marissa, have already concluded their memorial and he has been buried with his ancestors in Yazoo City, Mississippi. Paul's brother Mike lives here in this area and will be with us to share our memories of our friend on this upcoming special day. All those who read this and know Paul, please come and include yourself in this day and pass this message on to any others who may care to participate.

Paul, you will be loved and missed dearly. Rest peacefully my brother.
 
So sorry to ear, he was one of the Red Bar regulars in the very early years
R.I.P brother we'll miss you
 
So sorry to hear. Have known Paul since early 90's. Marissa was just a baby and Dianne a good friend. Haven't seen him in so long, but I do know he was the best fisherman I knew! If he wasn't cookin' he was fishin'! Thanks for posting this.
 
I never knew Paul, but I think he must have been a special person for so many people to want to join together and wish him a warm goodbye.
 
Amen, brother. :wub: Thanks for sharing and :welcome: scottalderson. I didn't know him either but then again it's funny how we are all touched by the lives others lived and shared. One of my BFF's in Nashville grew up in Yazoo City. Wonder if she knows him?
;-) ...a live shrimp under a cork I shall try in his honor.
:wub: :wub: :wub: R.I.P. PAUL CROUT :wub: :wub: :wub:

Scott, thank you so much for doing the memorial for Paul. As you know he loved the Destin area so much, mostly for the fishing and his good friends, especially those who stood by him regardless of his situation.

He will be missed so much and will take a long time to get over it. He was a wonderful chef in New Orleans and the Destin area.

He loved his daughter, Marisa, so much and longed for more time with and for her.

I appreciate all of the friendships he had in the North Florida area.

God Bless, he would have so pleased that this was done in his memory.

Glenda, his mom.
 
Hi Scott,
I am so glad that Paul is being remembered in his favorite place.
Paul loved to fish whereever he was. I traveled often from New Orleans to
Destin/Seaside to visit and think of him everytime I am there. I've been to the resturants, the Red Bar and the fishing holes. Thank you all so much for sticking by him all these years. Throw a line out for me!!

Love, Melanie (his sister)
 
:welcome: gigi40 and :welcome:Melanie, So very sorry for your loss. :cry: :cry: :cry:
Your son and brother sounds like a :cool: dude. ;-) :wub:
If you ever feel like talkin' :wub: or even if you just feel like bein' :angry: :pissed: smart a$$e$ sometimes. We're here for you. Post away gulls. :cool: :wub: :wave:
 
Thank you so much Scott for posting such a nice memorial for my dad. i miss him very much and carry him with me daily.

He was such a goofy guy! always laughing and smiling. i remember going to Bud and Alleys when i was little and him cooking me shrimp and pasta all the time. It was the most amazing meal i have ever eatten!

speaking of the "famous fishing spot" of paul..i was dragged there everyday when i was little! meanwhile i caught no fish..and my dad would sit there for hourrrs. he loved it. he was such an amazing guy..ans the best dad he could be

the memorial service in Yazoo was a very nice service.

(ilove and miss you daddy)
