Paul Noris Franciosa

Paul Noris Franciosa, age 33, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Tampa, Florida on October 16, 2024.
Paul was born on March 29, 1991 at Norwood Hospital. He graduated from Foxborough High School in 2009, after which he engaged in architectural studies at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, as well as criminal justice studies at Bridgewater State University.
Educated at both Universities, Paul was wise beyond his years, and people of all stages of life often sought his advice and counsel. He ended his college years with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and a passion for sales. Paul became uniquely accomplished at his sales job with Nixon Medical, eventually earning the responsibility of opening a brand-new company branch in Tampa, Florida. His success and achievements in such a short time is nothing less than extraordinary. Today, the Nixon Medical branch in Tampa, Florida is a huge success because of Paul.
Paul was an avid golfer, playing on the varsity team in High School and continuing his devotion to the sport into adulthood. Most of all, however, Paul adored his family and friends and treasured spending time with them in any way he could.
