Paula Fedrizzi Lash

Paula Fedrizzi Lash of Huntersville passed peacefully into heaven on August 8, 2020, as a result of complications from Leukemia and Lymphoma. She was born in Pittsburgh on December 24, 1965, to the late Livio and Irma (Valetti) Fedrizzi. She attended St. Albert the Great School, and Baldwin High School. Paula majored in Marketing at Pennsylvania State University, and went on to work at Hills Stores, Bank of America, Microsoft, and Wells Fargo. She married her beloved husband Warren on July 24th, 1993, and had two children, Andrew and Gianina. Family and community were of utmost importance to her and inspired everything she did.

You could often find her baking brownies to welcome people to her neighborhood, helping friends hone their professional skills, or coordinating support for colleagues going through a hard time. No one lacked for joy, laughter, or good food when Paula was around. She was a mom to all who knew her, and never met a stranger. She loved to travel and find new favorite places, notably Barcelona, Amsterdam, London, and Lisbon. But by far her favorite trips were to visit family in the Dolomite Alps and Lago Di Garda regions of Italy. She enjoyed gardening, reading, swimming, and rooting for the Nittany Lions, Steelers, and the Tar Heels. She is known among friends and family as a fantastic cook and baker, and was known to create and tweak her own recipes on many occasions.

Paula is survived by her husband of 27 years, Warren, their two children, Andrew and Gianina, her sisters Christine (Jack) Remmen, Mary Ann (Francis) Pitek, and Janet (Vince) Girdano, along with 11 nieces and nephews. She is preceded in heaven by her parents, Livio and Irma Fedrizzi, and her sister Louise Dariano.
