David Paul Suski

David Paul Suski, 71, of Mars, formally of Donora, beloved husband, proud father, cherished Pap Pap, dear brother and friend, died Wednesday, September 10, 2025, in Hospice Care at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh. He was born on March 12, 1954, in Monongahela, to the late Chester and Mary Ina Suski. He graduated from Ringgold high school (Donora campus) in 1972, and from California University of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania in 1976. He spent 35 years working for Washington County and went on to enjoy his retirement years, vacationing at the beach with his family, on the links with his golf buddies or at a fishing pond with his grandchildren. He possessed a great sense of humor and was the ultimate king of dad jokes. He maintained a strong network of lifelong friends who meant the world to him. He was a "Prayer Warrior", always steadfast in his faith and he inspired many as he fought the cancer valiantly. Most importantly, he adored his family and his legacy and memory will live on through them.
