Patsy Carr was a GREAT man! He lived his entire life (87 years) within the city limits of Pittsburgh. "A TRUE PITTSBURGHER". He had many great friends including David L. Lawrence, Art Rooney Sr., Billy Conn to name just a few.

He will be loved forever by the Marshalek family for the 10 great years he was married to our Mom. He was so proud of his Irish heritage, being raised in Homewood, attending Central Catholic and being an usher at St. Paul's Cathedral.

We will miss all your AWESOME "one-liners" but we will NEVER forget you.

Patsy Carr was a GREAT man. He lived all 87 years of his life within the city limits of Pittsburgh. He had many great friends including David L. Lawernce and Art Rooney Sr. to name just a few. He was so proud of his Irish heritage one of the many reasons that he was a perfect match for my Mom the past 10 years.

He will be greatly missed and always loved by the Marshalek Family. His AWESOME one liners will be used for many years to come. God Bless you Patsy Carr!!!!
