Anthony Paduchik

Anthony Paduchik Jr., beloved husband and cherished father and grandfather, fell asleep in the Lord on Saturday, October 30, 2021. Memory eternal. He was a member of St. Nicholas Orthodox Church in Mogadore, Ohio where he served faithfully and in earnest in various leadership, volunteer, and fraternal positions. Tony was Secretary of the St. Nicholas Russian Brotherhood and Auditor Chairman for the national RBO.

A longtime resident of Tallmadge Ohio, Tony was known for many, many years of community service. He was an Auxiliary Police Officer with the Tallmadge Police Department. Tony was a member and served as president of both the Tallmadge Lions and the Jaycees. At one time he was photographed with Tallmadge's most famous resident, Archie the snowman.

Most notable of his public service, Tony was closely associated with Tallmadge Little League Baseball where he was a coach, umpire, and league president from 1978-82. In his last year as president, all four Tallmadge All-star teams were crowned state champions, a singular achievement for the program.

Tony is survived by his wife of 57 years Judith Ann Paduchik (Tkach) and his children and grandchildren; Robert and Amanda (Myers) and their daughters Elena and Larissa, Barbara Yerian and Forrest, and their children Nicholas, John and Jillian; and Jason and Michele (Clark) and their children Andrew and Samantha.
