Paul Tarantino Obituary


Tarantino, Paul J. "Pauli" He fought, we fought, Paul found peace on May 23, 2006. Son of the late Anthony and Nettie, founders of Beyond the Sea Restaurant on Brady St., where Paul was a chef for 35 years. He later joined his wife at Ms. Patti's Deli and Catering, Mequon. He left behind the love of his life, wife Patti (nee Klabechek) of 43 years. Dear father of Anthony (Tina) of Las Vegas, NV, Paula, Kathleen (Jim) Uselding and Kristine Tarantino. Loving Nanu of Nicole, Paul Nicholas, Kassi Leigh and Christopher. Fond brother of Anthony, Catherine (Frank) Alioto, Rosalie Gruenwald and Michael (Kathy) Tarantino. Also survived by many nieces and nephews, other relatives and friends.

Caribbean cruising with his family was at the top of the list as well as trips to Las Vegas were great! He always enjoyed a round of golf with his brother Mike; on more quiet nights a game of gin with best pal, and cousin, Sal. May the sunshine of Palm Springs warm you, the breeze of the Caribbean keep you cool, and the Las Vegas lights shine upon you forever.

Visitation Sunday from 1-4PM, at the Funeral Home, with a Memorial Service at 4PM.

My family and myself would like to send our condolences and prayers to Paul Tarantino's family. I did not have the pleasure of knowing Paul myself, but I know his brother Mike very well. Hearing Mike talk about his brother so fondly, gives me a great idea of what kind of human being he was. Again our deepest condolences and God speed.

I am very saddened to hear the news of Pauli's passing. I am the son of Vito Russo and knew Pauli and Mike through their fine Beyond the Sea restaurant, which my Dad sold produce to. (I am sad to say that my Dad also passed away recently on March 15th.) My brothers and I would help my Dad in delivering the produce and we will always remember how well we were treated by Pauli and his brother. Every Friday night, they would make us an awesome fish sandwich since it was our last delivery of the day. My thoughts and prayers go out to Pauli's family at this difficult time.
