Obituary

Paul L. Raub, 56 of Gettysburg, formerly of Williamsport and Montoursville, passed away on Saturday, January 21, 2016 at his home. He was the loving husband of Elizabeth Jean (Raver) Raub.

Born November 24, 1960 in Grove City, PA, he was a son of the late Paul Lester and Miriam Geraldine (Smith) Raub.

Paul was a dedicated member of Leadership Lycoming, a volunteer at the Adams County S.P.C.A. and a former member of Montoursville Presbyterian Church. His family and friends remember him as a patient, compassionate soul who loved people and animals, rescuing many during his life. Paul was also brave, and even while facing many health challenges and surgeries, was ever the chivalrous gentlemen who always held the door for others, even during his own stay in the hospital. He is universally revered as a great husband, father, brother, uncle and friend. He enjoyed nothing more than time spent with his family. A kid at heart, he especially cherished activities with his daughter, Gabi, which included video games, comic books, roller coasters and photography. Everyone who was close to Paul was a better person because of him.

In addition to his wife, Beth, Paul is survived by his daughter, Gabriela Raub of Gettysburg; 2 brothers: Daniel Raub and his wife, Linda of Aurora, OH and Brian Raub and his wife, Lisa of Moneta, VA as well as exchange student and daughter-in-spirit Lala Zhang of Beijing, China and Houston, TX. Paul is also survived by many other loving relatives, as well as several faithful furry family members.

In addition to his parents, Paul was preceded in death by his brother, Jeffrey Raub.
