Barry Carley
I just found this and my heart just aches! Pat coached my daughter in soccer, that's where I first met, and knew him from. I hung out watching the practice and Pat asked to assist him in coaching, which I gladly did. It was later that we discovered that we both grew up in West Caldwell New Jersey. I mentioned he had a slight N.E. accent one day and asked where he was from. He answered New Jersey. I asked what part. He said, a little town you've probably never heard of, West Caldwell. You could have knocked me over with a feather! I said really, what street? He looked at me strangely and said, Smull Ave. why? I answered, I grew on central ave. a few houses down, and across the street from Washington elementary. I remember what a great kid his son Ian was too! My daughter is Sara, my name is Barry Carley. I'm so sorry to hear of this, Sara and I really liked Pat and Ian! Our condolences 😥
