David Parinella, 69, of Jamestown, died Thursday September 11, 2025, in his home.

A lifelong Jamestown resident, he was born October 24, 1955, in Jamestown, a son of the late Samuel and Angeline "Jill" LaBarbera Parinella.

He was a graduate of Jamestown high School.

Dave was a butcher for most of his career having worked at Tops Friendly Markets and Raymond Meats. He built many relationships as he tended bar at Miley's and The Alibi.

He was a communicant of St. James Catholic Church, member of Alpha Kappa Fraternity and umpired softball for many years.

Dave had an enormous passion for the game of baseball. He loved playing baseball as a kid and softball as an adult. In addition, throughout his lifetime he was an avid fan of the New York Yankees. Whether it was analyzing the game, watching it on television or traveling to a Yankee game with his family, Dave was a textbook definition of a diehard Yankee fan. He also enjoyed the camaraderie and friendships he found at OTB over the years.
