Paul R. Socha passed away on May 8th, 2018, aged 75 after a long battle with Parkinson's Disease. Son of Alfred and Alfreda, Paul was originally from Connecticut, but lived his last 17 years in Ocean Isle Beach, NC. Paul is survived by his wife, Pamela of 50 years, his two children, Celeste and Thomas and his sister, Elaine. He has 5 grandchildren, Evan (17), Grace (15), Domenic (15), Brooke (12) and Alexa (12). He was a United States Air Force Veteran and spent his working career at Pfizer Corporation in the Research and Development department.

Paul was a sweets-o-holic , there was never a time that he did not have some kind of cookie, chocolate, ice cream or pastry in hand. He had his own special snack jar that was always filled with chocolates, much to the delight of his grandchildren. Christmas was one of his favorite times because of all the homemade cookies that would be around. There wasn't a night he didn't have a bowl of ice cream in hand. He was a quiet man with a great sense of humor. Paul enjoyed playing golf, bowling and seeing his grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family appreciates donations to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
