Lawrence Paoletti Sr., a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and proud veteran, passed away surrounded by love. He was a man defined by hard work, loyalty, and an unwavering commitment to those he cared for.

Born with a strong sense of duty, Lawrence spent his life working tirelessly, often holding three jobs at a time to provide for his family and give them the life he believed they deserved. He was deeply proud of the life he built with his wife, Theresa, with whom he shared 43 years of marriage.

Lawrence retired from the United States Military (Air Force/National Guard) after 34 years of service, making multiple trips overseas in service to his country. Yet above all, it was his family who held his deepest devotion.

He is predeceased by his father, Joseph Paoletti.

He is survived by his loving wife Theresa; his daughters Cheryl Paoletti, Lauren Paoletti (fiance, Steven), Vanessa Head, (husband, Daniel) and his son Lawrence Jr. (wife, Chelsea). He adored his grandchildren, Christopher, Caleb, Corey, and Lorenzo, who brought him immense joy and pride. His face lit up whenever he spoke of them. He also leaves behind his mother, Angela Aquilino, and his sister, Jodie Paoletti-Nesky (husband, Keith).

Lawrence will be remembered for his strength, his generosity, and the quiet but powerful way he showed his love. His legacy lives on in the family he worked so hard for and cherished so deeply.
