He is once again reunited with his beloved wife of 50 years, Evelyn Kelley Fermo.
The visitation will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 23 at "The Family-Owned" Carmona Bolen Home for Funerals, 412 Main St., Toms River.

Pat & Linda:
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. He and your Mom were great. They always made everyone feel welcomed in their home and there were plenty of great times there. It was my pleasure to know them. I am sure they are happy to be reunited. May God bless them both. They were two of the kindest people ever and I will think of them fondly and smile. My deepest sympathy to you both. Remember the laughter and the great family parties. Rest in peace.
