Paulie was born in Hackensack, NJ and loved recounting stories of his tenacious childhood where he would build minibikes out of parts he cleverly acquired, crawling through a drain pipe into a factory. As a young man he was fast with his fists and could take anyone down within seconds. As an adult he took great pride in his work doing custom canvas upholstery on boats, RVs, and cars. He enjoyed listening to all kinds of music on all manner of stereos and would surprise guests with jazz renditions on the clarinet. He instilled this love for music in his daughter and supported her pursuit of music from a young age. Paulie loved to have fun and was always ready for a party! Paulie was loved by all dogs, enjoyed the fellowship of men, and was ever the ladies man.
Paulie is survived by his daughter Lizzy and his brothers Frankie and Joseph and is predeceased by his brothers Jamie and Michael as well as his parents Jean and Joseph.
A celebration of life will be held after the covid19 crisis and details will be announced at a later date.
