Eighty-three- years young, he was the son of the late Paul and Mary (Nagy) Zamboni of Nanty Glo, PA. Upon graduation from high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy.

Paul’s passions included traveling to visit family, going to the beach, visiting places of interest, attending NASCAR races or Penn State Football games. He enjoyed watching television and some of his favorite programs included football games, NASCAR, and Formula 1 racing. He also loved movies and was a fan of political programs. He enjoyed visiting Hot Z’s, Black Knight, and Trios where he loved rousing conversations with his many friends.
Paul is preceded in death by his sister, Paula Todd (2021).
A Celebration of life will be held at a future date.
