So many great memories of the many many times we spent together enjoying our beer nights in his Lincoln. A book could be written about our adventures. RIP PAZ!
I had the pleasure of working down the hall from, David. We had many interesting political conversations when he worked @ GRC. I will miss those fun times. And yes, Dave had a different sense of humor, but I understood him. RIP

I’m so sorry to the family of Paz. Have had a lot of fun bowling on leagues with him. Loved visiting with him. He introduced me to a vegetable I had never eaten. Thanks Paz for the kohlrabi! I’ll forever think of you when I eat them. RIP my bowling friend.

Condolences to the Dave’s family an friends.
Many laughs and memories bowling GRC school.
Certainly will be missed.
My sincerest sympathies to the family. We had the pleasure of growing up with all the Pazderka kids and I remember Dave being just as annoyed with us silly little girls as my brothers were! I know Cindy and Cathy will understand that one. Such a sweet man and even more amazing family. Hugs to you all. RIP Dave.
My Condolences to Paz’s Family. The Red Lincoln and the match books for the 8-track tape player still bring back smiles! I wish I could be in attendance, but life and distance make it difficult. He will be missed!
So sorry to hear of David’s passing. Sincere Sympathy
