Also because of you I met an amazing man with who I share so much, we were both involved with your care & in many ways that was a blessing. I will miss you PA but will never forget. I LOVE YOU! Now ride some horses in heaven!!!

  6. My wife Barbara and I would like to express our sincerest condolences to Al and Joe, and the entire Crocco Family for your loss of Pat. Our families were neighbors for many years and I still recall the happy times we shared as I was growing up in your back yard. I will never forget admiring Pat as he rode the horses that he loved so much. Our deepest sympathies to you all and may he rest in peace.

  7. Pat was a wonderful friend to my dad, Eddie. They worked together for many years at Blakeslee Prestress. They both had a love for horses, and Dad always shared Pat\’s stories with me. May he RIP and may his family find comfort in the beautiful memories he has left behind. With deepest sympathy,
