Paula Parks Radicioni
Paula Parks Radicioni age 77 was born on March 4, 1944, in the city of Galveston and peacefully passed away on July 8, 2021. She is preceded in death by her mother Malinda Smith Parks and stepfather O.A. Parks, Father PVT Paul Mobley, and Aunt Nelta Sandel.
Paula is survived by her beloved husband Joseph R. Radicioni Jr., son Joel R. Radicioni, daughter Timi Radicioni and fiancé Michelle, brother Mark Parks and wife Tamra, brother Clay Parks, Uncle Joe Sandel, sister-in-law Louise Horne and husband Jack, sister-in-law Rosalie Kettler and husband Terry, brother-in-law Anthony Radicioni and wife Linda, brother-in-law Jerry Radicioni and wife Elizabeth.
Paula married the love of her life and best friend Joe on June 23, 1962. The loving couple made and shared many wonderful memories with each other and their children, who will miss her dearly.
Paula worked for CCISD for 46 years and was the face of Clear Creek High School. She greeted many children as they entered and exited the doors of CCHS. Paula could recall many of their names along with their parents and some of the grandparents’ stories about their lives over the years. She was a kind and giving person yet stern and feisty especially when it came to children always having their best interest at heart. Paula was a person who gave herself to anyone in need and always found a way to make you feel as though you mattered. Although Paula was a Clear Creek “Wildcat” at heart, she was a dedicated “Gator” while supporting her daughter, Coach Radi, and the Lady Gator softball program. She was one proud momma and could be seen at every game in full Gator gear cheering the girls and coaches on.
Paula Radicioni was a true “icon” and a dear friend to everyone she met. From her CCHS family to her Gator family, Paula will forever be in our hearts.
“Love you more… miss you most”

Paula was one of the sweetest and kindest ladies to all who who knew her. She will live in the hearts of all who knew her.
Paula, enjoyed our high school days together and sharing our birthdays. You are so special and you will be terribly missed
My thoughts and prayers for Joe, Timi and the Parks family. Was one of the best athletes from Creek and devoted lady to all others. Another angel to watch over all of us.
Paula was the leader on our girl’s high school basketball team… always special in every way! Always special all through her life. My condolences to the Radicioni and Parks families.
While we were not the closest of friends I enjoyed our time together in high school and playing basketball with Paula. She was a sweet lady. We ran into each other occasionally and she was still the nicest lady she always was. Condolences to the family. She will be missed.
A wonderful lady from a wonderful family. You will be missed,

I cannot begin to say how much I miss Paula. I already miss her calls saying I’m just checking up on you old lady. Of course, I would say, but I’m not as old as you. She was six months older than I and we loved to joke about our age difference. She was a good person and a wonderful friend. Miss you Paula. Love to Timi, Joey and Joe. ❤️🌹
My deepest condolences to you Joe and your family. Praying for your comfort during this time of great sadness. May dear Paula rest in heavenly peace.
Timi, I always think of you and your Mom as Ross Family even though she was at Creek longer. I always admired her friendly smile and a way of correcting kids with love and acceptance. I’ve always admired your sweet Dad and brother too. You’ve always had a special place in my heart and mind. May we long cherish our Memories!
Love sent!
My human heart mourns deeply the passing of Paula, but my spiritual heart knows she’s in a much better place. I am still shocked that she’s no longer here on earth. I loved, and still love her so much. I wish I was strong enough to speak at her memorial, but I don’t think I could get through it. What a blessing she was to me. I loved her like she was my mom; she was my “school mom!” She was also my friend and encourager. She helped me through bad times and was happy for me through the good times. I was one of her Subs, and she often wrote little notes on my schedules of how much I meant to her, but boy, did she mean so much to me. She was one of the first non-family members that I ever said “I love you” to, and I meant it! I think we went through at least 4 Principals together, and no offense, I think Paula really ran the school!!!
I know Paula is eating red hots and listening to George in Heaven. I also am hoping she is getting the chance to be “BeBack” to all the little children there. How she loved Joe, Joey, Timi, and so many others! May the peace of our Heavenly Father bring you all comfort.
Paula, I hope when it’s my turn to round 3rd base headed “for home,” I hope you’ll be behind my “homeplate” to greet me.
Godspeed, my dear Paula!
She will be missed. Always fun to be around. Sincerest condolences.
I’ve worked as a sub for her for many years. She was always so sweet and considerate of my needs. I loved her as a friend. She is greatly missed. I do not walk into that building without fond memories of her wonderful smile and funny dialogue. I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s a loss for everyone!
I was so blessed to have Paula in my life, as was my family!! She was the true meaning of friend, and I adored her. Such a kind, loving, patient, positive spirit and she always had that special smile on her face. I’m going to miss her so much, but she will always be in a special place in my heart. Prayers Timi, Joel & Joe!! Love you
(RIP CPR)
