September 14, 1955 - June 26, 2025

On June 26, 2025 Pasquale "Pat" Pellegrini, after a lengthy illness, passed away at his home in Frankford, Delaware.

Born in Baltimore, Maryland on September 14, 1955, Pat was one of five children born to the late Bobbie Jean (Smith) Pellegrini, and Anthony Frank Pellegrini of Gardenville.

Pat loved playing pool, and was on several teams playing 9-Ball, and 8-Ball. He even went so far as to compete in Las Vegas. Pat's true passion was working in the fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous. He loved spreading the message of recovery, hope, and faith. Pat especially found purpose in introducing the program to newcomers. He took meetings into jails, recovery centers, and local meetings. Pat took such pride in being able to recently celebrate 30 years of clean time.

In addition to his parents, Pat was preceded in death by his siblings, James and Anthony Pellegrini. He is survived by his wife, Judy (Davis) Pellegrini; sons, Christopher Pellegrini, Anthony Bova, and Charles "JR" Hensley; granddaughters, Rowan Brower and Quinn Pellegrini; siblings, Nicholas and Ninetta Pellegrini; and many close friends, colleagues, and acquaintances.
