Paul D.

Tureski

Former Sag Harbor resident, Paul D. Tureski, passed away on December 28, 2019 in Mechanicsville,VA. Paul was born September 18, 1927 in Southampton, NY. He served in the United States Navy during WW ll, escaping death after surviving a military plane crash. Living more than sixty-five years in Noyac, he was a dedicated father and a loving husband to Antoinette M. Tureski who predeceased him in 2010. A resourceful problem solver, Paul could accomplish anything he set his mind to. During his life he worked as an entrepreneur, a salesman, and as a railroad electrician. Paul enjoyed socializing, golfing, a game of pool, repairing whatever needed to be fixed, but mostly he loved doing for others. At family functions he cheerfully joked, prepared the cocktails and was quick to clear the table after a meal. During his ninety-two remarkable years Paul will be remembered by the goodness and affection he extended to all who knew him. He was one of five sons born to Catherine and Paul Tureski, and was predeceased by three- Henry, Peter and Teddy, but is survived by his younger brother Raymond. Paul is also survived by his three children Gary D. Tureski, Glenn R. Tureski, and Gale M. Kenny, daughter in laws Kathryn and Susan, nine grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. Those who knew him will never be the same as they were before this loss, but are ever so much better for having had someone so great to lose. His light remains in the hearts of all who loved him. Memorial service is scheduled for Tuesday January 7 ^th at 11 a.m. with the burial at St. Andrew's R.C. Cemetery immediately following. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial gifts be made in memory of Paul D. Tureski to the Dementia Society of America by mail at PO Box 600, Doylestown, PA 18901.
