Paul Anthony Pietrangelo

It is with great sadness, and pain in our hearts we want to let you know that on Tuesday, January 26, 2021, in Red Deer Alberta, Paul Anthony Pietrangelo, passed away at the age of 48 due to complications from diabetes.

Paul was born on December 21, 1972, in Toronto, ON. After attending Chinguacousy Secondary School Paul received his B.A. at York University and following in the footsteps of his father was an accomplished Electrician. Paul moved to work in the oil fields of Fort McMurray, Alberta.

Those who knew Paul, know he loved to have an audience which made him an avid storyteller. Smart and quick with a joke, Paul will be missed for his tales of growing up in Toronto and Brampton. An avid traveler he regaled all with his many trips abroad, Europe, Wales, Florida and countless trips to warmer climates. Paul was a social butterfly and could make friends anywhere he went.

Like the complex equipment he worked with, and more than the sum of its parts, Paul was more than the hobbies and passions we knew him for, music, automotive tinkering, rugby, love of animals and travel; a few lines on this page will never do justice to the brother we lost. He had a kind and compassionate soul and would always put others' needs first.

Paul was preceded in death by his father Michael. He is survived by his mother Nicki, sisters Maria and Loretta, nephews Joshua, Damian and Justin. He will be dearly missed by his Uncles, Aunts, and many loving cousins and relatives. His friends and colleagues, in Alberta were his extended family; and Paul's Family and Friends in Ontario, and around the world have expressed an ever growing list of kind words and sympathy that truly shows he was loved by all.

A Celebration of Life will follow at a later date when it is safe to have family and friends together. Please email [email protected] to be included on a notification list.
