Patrick Alfieri, age 19, was greeted in heaven on March 20, 2011 by his grandmother and grandfather Mary and Les Leventhal and his grandfather Ray Alfieri.
Patrick was a friend to all and has left so many with an empty place in their hearts.
Devastated by his absence are his mom and dad, Moira and Anthony Alfieri, his big sister, Andrea, his soul mate, brother, and best friend, Jamie, and his little bro and target, Christopher. His wonderful Uncle Mark, loving Aunt Linda and the greatest cousins who were also his good friends, Corey, Julian, Tyler, Nick, Mark, Jackson, Laura, his Aunt Patti, and the love of his life, Debbie, will miss him tremendously. Left on earth to cherish his memory forever are his grandmother, Matilda Alfieri, and uncles and aunts: Frank, Phil and Margaret Alfieri, Mary Eileen Bills, Tom and Mary Alfieri, Annie and Paul Kelly, Christine and Larry Giangreco; and many cousins.
Patrick was a kind young man. He was friendly and had a lasting impact on people. His engaging smile was contagious and was just a part of his outstanding good looks.
Patrick loved the game of golf since he was three and competed from age 8; he won many honors and was invited to play in tournaments around the country. These experiences helped shape the man he was becoming, understanding ups and downs, good and bad, and making his family proud.
Patrick loved nature and hiking. He loved the mountains of North Carolina. His ability to turn anything into a joke inspired all around him, making their lives better. He loved listening to a wide variety of music and going to concerts. He shared his loving nature with every person he met.
