So sorry to hear that Pat passed away. We didn't know about it until a week later. I remember your last visit to our place in Naples, when you were talking about buying a place. I guess you have to enjoy life while you can. You never know.
Our sincere condolences.

Mario and Michael,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dear wife and mother.I was lucky enough to know Pat while she worked at Blue Cross; we actually sat beside each other for a few years and talked about our husbands being firefighters. I'll remember Pat from the wonderful stories she told of going to Foxwood with her Mario and only spening her $20.00 dollars on the slots then go out for a nice dinner with her husband. When she spoke of you Michael, her face just would light up.It makes me so happy to know she finally got a daughter-in-law and grandchild. Not only was Pat a wonderful person but she was funny and had us laughing all the time..she will be missed.
