Paul Cali

Paul Cali, age 94, of Dover, Florida, went home excitedly to meet his Lord and Savior on July 26, 2026. Born on October 29, 1931, Paul lived a life defined by deep devotion to his family, honorable service to his country, and unwavering faith in God.

Paul was a dedicated tradesman and a proud member of UA Local 123 for 69 years. He worked faithfully as a plumber and pipefitter for 37 years, earning the deep respect of his fellow workers through his strong work ethic, skill, and integrity. A proud veteran, he also honorably served his country in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.

His faith was the cornerstone of his life. As a devoted member and Deacon at First Baptist Church Dover, Paul dedicated his life to serving the Lord and teaching Sunday school. He actively shared his faith and his passions through the Rod Run Ministry, and regularly demonstrated Christ's love by volunteering at the church clothes closet and food pantry to help those in need.

Paul leaves behind a beautiful family legacy. He was the beloved husband of Louise Cali, with whom he shared 69-1/2 wonderful years of marriage. He was the loving father of Larry (Debbie) Cali and Karen (Randy) Gandy; the cherished grandfather of Ryan Stokes, Danielle Adkins, Adam Gandy, Jenna Stokes, and Dustin Cali; and the proud great-grandfather of 11 adoring great-grandchildren.

Family and friends are invited to gather for funeral services on Monday, August 3, 2026 from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM at First Baptist Church Dover, located at 3223 Gallagher Rd, Dover, FL 33527.
