Paula Jean Arbitelle Danzy entered the arms of her Heavenly Father on July 22, 2020.

Paula, currently of Sebastian, Florida, was born on September 20, 1954 in Allentown, Pennsylvania. She lived most of her life in Danbury and Waterbury, Connecticut.

Paula had a vibrant personality, and that showed in every aspect of her life. She loved bold colors, spunky hair styles, shoes to match every outfit, and anything Betty Boop. Her favorite flowers were red and pink long-stemmed roses.

If you knew Paula, you knew she was who she was—bold and sassy, yet loyal to those she loved. She was the type of person that loved to help people. If she could meet a need, she would. Her heart and home were always open.

She loved her children and grandchildren with all her heart.

Paula was preceded in death by her father, Paul Arbitelle; her mother, Octavia Brill; her brothers, Mark Arbitelle, Richard (Dick) Arbitelle, Jimmy O'Hara, and David Arbitelle.

She was survived by her daughter, Karyn (Heath) Bryant; her son, Jason Danzy, former husband James Danzy; her grandchildren, Travis (Nicole), La'Kyia , Jordan , Heath, Jr., Jahun , Jaymere , Aleeya, Diamond, Cherish, Elijah, Jaydon, and Tyler; Great grandchildren; Carter and Troy; brother, Michael (Sandi) Arbitelle and Dennis O'Hara; sister-in-law, Trudy Arbitelle; and several nieces and nephews.

A celebration of life will be held 12 noon Saturday, August 1, 2020, at Overflow Church of Vero Beach, 1505 20th Street, Vero Beach, FL 32960
