Earl Goldsmith

It is with profound sadness that the family of Earl Goldsmith, announce his peaceful passing on Sunday, December 3, 2023, at the age of 77.
Earl will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 38 years, Debbie; children: Treven, wife Alla, Frankie, wife Alex, and Anthony; grandchildren: Liora, Anya, Leo and Rai; mother-in-law: Melvia Parisotto, brother-in-law; Fausto Jr., wife Paula Parisotto, and numerous nieces, nephews, family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his father and mother, Francis and Lillian Goldsmith, brother Howard and wife Sissy, sister Joy Goldsmith, and father-in-law, Fausto Parisotto.

Earl was born in Los Angeles, CA, and worked in the Lighting Industry for over 50 years. He celebrated the first of three sons, Treven, in 1969. And so began an unconditional love for his children that could not be separated by distance. Earl first met his future in-laws, and wife, Debbie in 1983, while calling on P & P Lighting in Santa Barbara. With her parents, Fausto and Melvia, Debbie and Earl would run P & P for many years. Earl and Debbie welcomed their twins in 1992, and life became even more joyful and busy! Earl and Debbie moved in 1998 to the Santa Ynez Valley, to raise their family, and enjoy a more rural lifestyle. Earl retired in 2018, and enjoyed every day of his leisure time; morning coffee and conversation, reading (usually 3 books at a time), walking the dogs, and especially barbecuing on his Weber!

Burial was held at Oak Hill Cemetery in Ballard, CA., followed by a Celebration of Life Summer BBQ, held in his honor.

Thank you to all the family and friends that have reached out to offer condolences, support, and love. We are truly grateful.
