I’m deeply sorry for your loss. The obituary for Patrick Napoli, published on January 18, 2022, in the Patriot-News, reflects the profound impact he had on those who knew him. He was a devoted husband and father, passing away at the Milton S. Hershey Medical Center on January 15, 2022, at the age of 84. Born in Italy on November 25, 1937, he emigrated to the United States as a young boy and became a U.S. citizen in 1961. Patrick was the first in his family to attend college, earning a full scholarship from ALCOA to attend Stevens Institute of Technology, where he graduated in the top ten percent of his class. He worked as a mechanical engineer for the U.S. Army ARDEC for over 37 years.
Patrick was married to Josephine (Giuseppina Saccà), and they celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary in October 2021. He is survived by his two daughters, Mary Napoli and Victoria Yahner, and his son-in-law Eric. He also leaves behind his two brothers, Thomas Gramuglia and Vincent (Janet) Gramuglia, along with many nieces, nephews, and cousins in New Jersey, Canada, and Italy.
