Paul James Farrington
Oct 20th, 2025
Paul James Farrington, of Newton and Bass River, formerly of Watertown, passed away peacefully at the age of 92, surrounded by his loving family.
Paul was a proud graduate of Watertown High School, a Sergeant in the U.S. Army, and a graduate of Northeastern University. He spent most of his career among buildings and bricks, serving as President of Spaulding Brick Company in Somerville, Massachusetts, for 45 years. He was known for his honesty, work ethic, leadership, messy desk, and golf game. Above all, he was devoted to his family and friends, who will forever remember his humor, kindness, and generous heart.
He was the beloved husband of Lucille Kiley Farrington, with whom he celebrated their 67th wedding anniversary in August. Paul was the devoted father of Susan Farrington, Kelly McGuill, and Renee Grady (Peter); the cherished “Grampy” of Ryan (Amanda), Casey (Kelly), Kiley, Julia, and Jack; and the proud great-grandfather of Grace and Abby McGuill. He was also a loving father-in-law, uncle, and friend to many. He will be dearly missed.
