He started his career in construction, during which he met his future wife, Angie Pileggi. After their marriage in 1937, Paul went on to become a well-known custom home builder. In 1960, for his wife and children, Paul built their forever home, where they welcomed family and friends creating ever lasting memories.
When Paul retired, he became an avid golfer and continued his love of bowling.
Paul is the beloved husband of the late Angie; father of Paulette Farling (Bob); Mary Lou Corbett (late David) and the late Michael P. Pulli (Sandra); he is also survived by his 8 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great-grandchild.
