Paul D. Giamella

Paul D. Giamella, age 73, passed away on Sunday, November 20, 2022. Paul was born in Somerville, to Henry and Lottie Giamella in 1949. He then grew up in Bound Brook and graduated from Bound Brook High School in 1967 and then lived in Bound Brook for over 70 years. Before his retirement in 2002, Paul worked as a draftsman and lineman for Bell Atlantic and fiber optics installer for Verizon of Plainfield for 30 years.

Paul was an incredibly kind man that led a simple life. He never allowed his illnesses to hold him back. He was always the man behind the camera taking pictures of his two loves, his family and flowers. As long as he was surrounded by his family, friends, and tools, he was a happy man. He had the greenest thumb imaginable. He would grow hundreds of vegetables and flowers in his greenhouse just to share with friends and family. He had an immense love for corvettes, gardening, flowers, and woodworking. Later in life, Paul grew a love for baking and would never come empty handed on any day without something delicious that he whipped up from scratch. Paul had a hefty collection of tools. He had every tool you can imagine times two just to make sure he had it for someone to use.

Paul Giamella is survived by his; one son, Paul Giamella; two daughters, Stacey Rutski (Richard) and Christy Owsik (Daniel); three grandchildren Riley, Richard, Jr., and Ryan Rutski; and dear wife, Tanya Giamella.
