Paul White Obituary
Paul Robert White, of Zephyrhills, Florida, passed away on July 13, 2026, at the age of 79. He was born on May 13, 1947, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the late Robert and Sophia White.
Paul grew up in Pittsburgh and graduated from South Hills High School. He went on to build a career in various roles before spending many years as the IT administrator for the Houston Harbaugh law firm in Pittsburgh. A true tech expert at heart, Paul loved staying ahead of the curve and was always eager to get his hands on the latest new-fangled gadget.

Outside of work, Paul was an avid motorcyclist and proud BMW rider. He was a member of the BMW MOA, the Western PA Retreads, and the Four Winds BMW Riders, and treasured the friendships and open roads those communities gave him.

Seeking refuge from Pittsburgh winters, Paul later made his home in Zephyrhills, FL. Paul was a lifelong fan of NASCAR and enjoyed watching the races every week. He took great pride in his property and was always happiest tackling a new home project, big or small with the help of friends and relatives. And no dinner was complete without his ice-cold glass of milk. He was a loving companion to his dogs, Tito and Ozzie, who brought him great joy.

Paul was preceded in death by his former wife, Sherri, and his sister, Darlene Kranz (December 2024).

He is survived by his nephew, Ken Kranz (Tosha Kranz), and his niece, Jennifer Piccola (Jason Piccola).

There are no local services planned at this time
