Paul L. Correll, Jr., of Tilden Twp., passed away on Friday, April 17, 2026 in Geisinger St. Luke\u2019s Hospital, Orwigsburg.<\/p>\n

Paul will be remembered for his love of creating and sharing his twisted metal art and handmade wooden toys through his two businesses. Paul was also a motorcycle mechanic and built four-wheelers and dirt bikes for his son and grandsons. Paul never missed his grandsons\u2019 sporting events, and captured many of Hamburg\u2019s sporting events through his photography. A former construction worker, Paul had an accident in 1985 that left him paralyzed. He went on to get a degree in Computer Science from Reading Area Community College and worked for Met-Ed, where he retired after 27 years. His family and friends will remember him for his unwavering perseverance, his passion for building something out of nothing, and love for his son and grandchildren.<\/p>\n
