Pat was a graduate of Seton Hall University with a double major in business and music.  Pat spent his career working  as a sales executive for multiple large companies in the food and beverage industry.  In addition, he had a passion for music and played multiple instruments, including the guitar (the twelve-string guitar was one of his favorites), bass guitar, piano, and banjo, to name a few.  Pat also had a long history as a professional musician throughout his life.  He even worked as a studio musician for a record label in New York, NY.   He was currently playing weekly in a worship band at Crossroads Worship Center, in Matawan NJ, where he made countless friends with those in the church community.   Recently, after his retirement, he was working on the Merchandising Execution Team at Home Depot.  Most of all, Pat was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to many.   He will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.
