Paul Gossard, 62, passed away peacefully at home on June 16th, 2025. He was born on December 4th, 1962, a son of the late William and Barbara (Janectic) Gossard. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother-in-law, Ken LeFever. Paul shared many wonderful years with his long-time partner, Tracy Reed, whose love and companionship were a constant source of comfort and happiness in his life. In addition to his wife, he is survived by his loving siblings, his brothers, Pat, Ron (Cindy), and Douglas (Regine) and his sisters, Kathy LeFever and Shirley Martin. He was a proud and loving uncle to Jennifer (Tom) Fisher, Brandon Gossard, Jacob and Nick (Jenny) Martin, and Sean and Madeliene Gossard. He is also survived by his dear friends Kellie Forkin and Beth Tirro, as well as Tracy’s family: her sisters Vickey (Dennis) Heberlein and Lesley (Edward) Alexander and nephew, EJ: all of whom will carry his memory with love.
Paul was a true Parrothead at heart who found joy in the simple pleasures of life: kicking back and listening to his favorite Jimmy Buffett tunes with his beloved animals by his side, most of whom were rescues he cared for deeply.
Paul will be remembered for his gentle spirit, his deep compassion for animals, and his laid-back, kind-hearted nature. His legacy will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
Family and friends will be received on Thursday, June 19th, from 1 P.M. until the time of Blessing Service at 5 P.M. at the GABAUER-LUTTON FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATION SERVICES, INC., 117 Blackhawk Road, Beaver Falls.
A private interment will take place at St. Mary’s Cemetery of Beaver Falls.
Please keep Paul’s family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Monetary donations can be made in Paul’s name to the Beaver County Humane Society.
