Paul J. Hovanec, 54, passed away on Friday, December 24, 2021, at Butler Memorial Hospital after a lengthy battle in the ICU with Covid-19. Paul was born in Burlington, Iowa on October 9, 1967, before moving to Freedom, PA as a little boy. He graduated from Ambridge High School in 1986 and went on to technical school at the Pennsylvania Gunsmith School in Avalon, PA. Paul worked a variety of jobs and spent the last 9 years as a technician at Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc in Warrendale, PA. Paul has lived in Butler County for 22 years with his wife and daughters. Paul loved all kinds of music and movies, sailing ships and pirates, tabletop gaming such as Dungeon and Dragons, telling bad jokes, and attending the Choir concerts, plays and musicals his daughters were involved in at school. What Paul loved the most in the whole world was his family. Paul is survived by his wife of 20 years, Lori (Snyder) Hovanec; his daughters, Gabrielle and Katrina Hovanec; his parents, Paul R. and Charlotte Hovanec; his brothers, Kenneth (Gayle) Hovanec and Andrew (Rachel) Hovanec, and two nephews and a niece.
