Paul J Farley

Paul J. Farley, born on March 31, 1939, in Chapmanville, West Virginia, passed away on June 16, 2026, in Orrville. Paul was a dedicated worker who retired from Hugard Manufacturing in 2004.

He was well known for enjoying simple pleasures in life. He liked mowing the lawn, building trailers, and spending time tinkering around with projects. These activities brought him joy and kept him busy throughout his years.

Paul is now peacefully together again with his loving wife, Mable, who passed away before him. He was also preceded in death by his daughter, Thelma Farley; his parents; Jim and Georgia Farley and two brothers, James Farley and Robert Farley.

He leaves behind four children who carry on his legacy: Bob (Bonnie) Farley of West Salem, Fay Wright of Apple Creek, Julie (Aaron) Reinhardt of Woodsfield, and Anthony Farley of Apple Creek; eleven grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren.

Memorials in Paul's honor may be sent to Julie Reinhardt at PO BOX 421, Woodsfield, Ohio 43793.

There will be a celebration of life at a later date in West Virginia. Paul J. Farley will be remembered as a hardworking man with a love for creating and fixing things, and as a family man who touched the lives of those around him. The staff at Matteson Funeral Home in West Salem is honored to serve the Farley family as we honor Paul’s memory.
