Paul Alan Gulyas, age 82, passed away peacefully on January 8, 2025, with his beloved wife by his side. Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Paul lived a life shaped by faith, intellect, and a sharp wit that left a lasting impression on those who truly knew him.
Paul was married to Linda Lea Gulyas, his devoted wife and steadfast companion. He was a proud father to Lori Blose (husband Rich), Natalea Waller (husband Ryan), and Karen Sachetti, and a loving grandfather to Kelly and Hayden Mumbach and Sophie and Asher Waller. He was preceded in death by his parents, Paul and Martha Gulyas.
Paul’s professional life reflected his love of words, music, and storytelling. He began as a high school English teacher, where his command of language and stories came naturally, and later became a popular disc jockey.
A committed Christian, Paul placed his faith firmly in Jesus Christ. His favorite Scripture, Psalm 23, was a reflection of the trust and assurance that guided his life: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” That faith remained central to who he was and where he found his hope.
Paul was a phenomenal joke and storyteller with a quick, sometimes dry wit. He possessed a remarkable knowledge of music from the 1950s onward, was a true trivia wizard, and had a deep love for travel, especially cruising, having gone on an astounding 85 cruises. He was known for his generosity and his sharp mind, and he will be remembered for the stories he told, the insight he shared, and the distinctive presence he carried.
