My husband Ron and I knew Pat years ago.. We owned Shady Lane Kennels on Drum Pt.Rd. and we always boarded Blazer while Pat was building his home in Shore Acres..After that ( whenever we would have a storm or 4th of July Fireworks,) Blazer would break through and run to our house and wait on our front porch!!! My husband Ron passed Oct.5th....He always enjoyed Pat !!!! I pray they are still together swapping Blazer and Rex stories.

All my love to that family I grew to be a apart of.
God Bless

I loved your Dad. He was great to me. I am Meg Stanzione’s baby sister. I love the track and I would always bet on Pat’s horses—He would say I told you don’t bet on that one, you won’t win!
I remember three times winning-I couldn’t wait to tell him at one of my sister’s barbecues. I loved your Mom too. What a sweetheart she was! I had my Wedding Rehearsal Dinner in the infamous Red Lion. I miss it so. My Mom and I went on the last night it closed. Snoopy, the Red Baron was the landmark forever etched in my mind. Love you and will miss you Pat!

My heartfelt condolences go out to Pat's family. I had many dealings with Pat when he served the BTMUA as CFO of the Township. Didn't always agree with his position but respected his opinion. He was a leader in the community. He will be missed.

My sincere condolences to all the Botazzis especially to Pat and Peter whom I had the good fortune to teach at CBA. I also had the honor of knowing Mr. Botazzi too while visiting the Shore and the Red Lion. He was a true gentleman. May he rest in peace!
