Paul Raffiani's Obituary
Paul Raffiani, 85 of West Windsor, NJ passed away on Thursday, June 25, 2015 at University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro, NJ.
Born in Lodi, NJ he lived most of his life in Fairlawn, NJ before moving to West Windsor 20 years ago.
Early in his life, Paul owned and operated PJ's Florist in Fairlawn. Subsequent to that, he began appraising and selling real estate before taking the position of Tax Assessor in Edison Township, NJ from 1985 until his retirement in 2005.
Mr. Raffiani was honorably discharged from the US Army after serving his country during the Korean War and successfully completing OCS.
In his leisure time, Paul enjoyed gardening, yard work and canoeing. His multiple almost daily trips to Lowes endeared him to the many employees who would lightheartedly ask "Why don't you become a stockholder." A devoted Dallas Cowboy fan, he especially liked watching them play the NY Giants, with his wife, Joan, who is a NY Giant fan. When not watching football, they enjoyed yearly trips to the beautiful island of Corsica to visit relatives and appreciate all it has to offer.
Paul was predeceased by a brother Louis Raffiani. He is survived by his wife, Joan R. Dambach Raffiani, sons Greg Raffiani, Marc, David and Anthony Centrelli, step-son Richard Dambach, eight step-grandchildren, a brother Joseph Raffiani, his beloved cat, Bella and several nieces and nephews.
Private cremation arrangements are entrusted to Kimble Funeral Home, Princeton, NJ
Burial will be on his cherished island of Corsica at a future date.
