Peter Pala, 59, passed away on July 13, 2024 in Miromar Lakes, FL.
Son of Jaroslava and Jerry Pala, he was born July 17, 1964 in the Czech Republic. He graduated from Freehold High School in 1982 and earned his Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Management and Information Systems from Carnegie Mellon University in 1986. He worked for his entire career in the data-driven marketing business. He was an original partner in RPM Direct, which was founded in 2001. In 2015 RPM Direct was sold and Peter retired.
He was preceded to heaven by his mother and father. He is survived by his wife, Paula Pala of Miromar Lakes, FL, their children, Hunter and Penny Pala of Miromar Lakes, FL and his daughter, Gabrielle Lisa and son-in-law Joseph Lisa of Sanford, FL; he is also survived by his brother Marko Pala and his wife Pam Pala, niece Allison, and nephew Bryan of Salt Lake City, UT.
After retiring Peter lived life to the fullest. He and Paula loved to travel and their favorite places were Italy and Cabo. However, Peter was happiest at his hunting lodge in Arkansas. Peter was a wonderful cook and loved to entertain his family and friends. He was well known for his homemade pastas and pizzas. He learned to captain their motor yacht, Amici, that they shared with dear friends.
Peter was and always will be a deeply beloved father, uncle, cousin, brother, and friend. His passing was sudden and unexpected.
There will be a celebration of life service on July 27th at Miromar Lakes Club House starting at 4:00pm. It was his wish that we laugh, reminisce, and smile together during this time.
In lieu of flowers, donations and gifts can made in Peter's memory to Lee Health Foundation at 9800 S. HealthPark Drive, Suite 405, Fort Myers, FL 33908, or directly online at www.leehealthfoundation.org/donate.
