It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Paul F. Stanzaki Jr., age 79, who left us peacefully on May 17, 2025. Born on May 26, 1945, in Pittsburgh, PA, Paul was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He was a genuine spirit whose warmth and kindness will be profoundly missed by all who knew him.
Paul was a dedicated family man, married to his beloved wife, Kathleen, since July 10, 1971. Together, they created a loving home and cherished memories, raising two wonderful children, Paul J. Stanzaki and Pamela J. (Damian) Mannion. As a proud pappy, he adored his grandson, Patrick Mannion and took great delight in every moment spent with his family.
As a Parts Counter Man in the automotive industry, Paul was admired for his work ethic and commitment, having spent over 48 years at the same company. In his later years, Paul enjoyed working at the Butler Auto Auction, spending time with other retirees. He was a faithful Steelers season ticket holder and cherished time spent with friends at the poker table, always sharing stories of his adventures in Las Vegas and Disney World. Paul also had a passion for Legos and jig-saw puzzles; much like that hobby, Paul will be remembered for the beautiful life he created from the assembly of small, but precious, pieces of time.
He is also survived by his brother, Robert Stanzaki, and many extended family members and friends who will miss his infectious laughter and caring heart. He is preceded in death by his parents, Paul and Dolores Stanzaki, his in-laws, Jerome and Beatrice Benedik, and his sister, Shirley (Ken) Howe, whose memory he held dear.
Family and friends are welcome on Thursday, May 29, 2025, from 4-7 pm at Devlin Funeral Home of Cranberry Township, 2678 Rochester Road, Cranberry Township. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held Friday at 11 am at Divine Grace Parish, St. Ferdinand Church, 2535 Rochester Road, Cranberry Township.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Canterbury Hospice, 310 Fisk Street, or Divine Grace Parish, in recognition of the compassionate care they provided.
