Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 31, 2026.
Paul Allabaugh, 72, a native of Plymouth, PA, unexpectedly passed away on March 30, 2026, in New Smyrna Beach, FL.

A lifelong welder by trade, Paul was known for his skill in building. He was employed at Lyn-Weld for many years before relocating to Florida, where he continued to weld and enjoyed teaching the trade to others. Most recently, he took great pride in crafting "Rainbow Bridges" for those who had lost beloved pets.

He is survived by his wife of 23 years, Patricia Allabaugh, New Smyrna Beach, FL; his sons, Jason Allabaugh and wife Jaclyn, Moosic; and Justin Allabaugh, Scranton; his grandsons, Benjamin and Bradley; his siblings: Arlene Gallagher, Debbie Jayne, Richard Allabaugh, and William Allabaugh; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Russell Allabaugh, and by sisters, Susan Jones and Judith Blackwell.
