Patricia Ferrara Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 17, 2018.
Patricia Ferrara, age 64, passed away on Tuesday, January 16th at St. Joseph's Hospital in Syracuse, NY.

Patricia Ferrara was born in Brooklyn, NY, daughter of the late Louis and Rosemarie (Mangogna) Ferrara and younger sister to Marie Ferrara. The bond between sisters was forever growing, and was so strong they were both expected to deliver baby boys only one day apart in June of 1974. (though John arrived 4 days early and Phillip arrived a week late)

Pat is survived by her beloved children John and Patricia Gagliano who she raised in the Gravesend neighborhood in Brooklyn. She took great pride in her career as a (medical) Office Manager and the life she was able to offer her children.

In recent years, Pat relocated to Syracuse, NY (nicknamed 'pinky' by friends, for her love of the color pink which she proudly wore every day) to be closer to her daughter Patricia, and son-in-law Spencer and most importantly her cherished grand-dog Lulu: Lulu was a great sense of love, comfort and distraction for Pat as her Multiple Sclerosis began to progress in recent years.

Memorial services will be held at Cusimano and Russo Funeral Home, Located at 2005 West 6th street Brooklyn , NY from 4 pm to 8pm, Friday, January 19th, 2018. Mass will be held at Our Lady of Grace Church on Saturday, January 20th at 10:30 am

Plans to celebrate the life of Patricia in the Syracuse area to follow in the coming weeks.
