Obituary: Paul R. Pausig, 67, Of Meriden

MERIDEN, CT — (From Wallingford Funeral Home): Paul R. Pausig, 67, of Meriden, passed away suddenly at home on Tuesday, December 13, 2022. Paul was born on July 1, 1955, in Terre Haute, Indiana.

Paul spent his childhood throughout the United States and graduated high school in New Jersey. After moving to Connecticut, Paul attended CCSU and earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. He spent 25 years working in the insurance industry and 15 years in retail management.

When Paul wasn’t working, he enjoyed spending time with his loved ones. He took immense pride in making his home and backyard a gathering place for friends and family to come anytime. Paul also loved traveling with his wife, as much as possible, to their favorite place, St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. When he could not travel, he took pleasure in rooting for the New York Yankees or watching Sunday football with his wife.

Paul will be remembered for his generosity, kindness, and dedication to his family. He will be profoundly missed by those who knew him, but never forgotten.

Paul was predeceased by his mother, Marcia Harper Pausig (Stamford) and his brother, Perry Pausig (North Haven).
