Pasquale Fittipaldi was born on March 5, 1932 in Brooklyn NY and moved to Florida in 1964 with his family. He was a banker, insurance agent and mentor. His family came first above all. He loved to sing and tell jokes. He loved working on the cruise ship and loved to go on cruises.
He is survived by the love of his life, his wife, Eleanor, of 67 years. He is survived by his 6 children, James (Paula), Raymond (Lisa), MargaretAnn, Patrick, John (Anna) and Michele (Chris). He is survived by his grandchildren Nicole, Brian, Patrick, Lindsey, Christopher Jr (CJ) and Jamie and his 2 great grandchildren, Summer and Brody. And a host of extended family and friends.
He was a member of the Knights of Columbus for 52 years. He held many offices and was a proud Knight. He was a member of St David Catholic Church where he served as an usher. He has always been very active in the Catholic Church.
God has taken our beloved Pasquale home and it is with our heaviest heart that we continue to live with only his memory. He will never be forgotten.

I knew Pat from St. David's Church and looked forward to seeing him on Sunday's at the 8:30am mass. I shared my experience with him of having open heart surgery prior to Pat going in the hospital for the same operation, years ago. He returned to Church, soon after undergoing open heart surgery, with his positive attitude. Pat always wore a smile and was always a delight. Pat loved his family and spoke of them frequently. Pat will be missed.

Pat was a good a faithful servant.
He was a dedicated Knights of Columbus leader and good Brother Knight.
Warm and accepting, Pat was always willing to lend a hand.
Deepest condolences to the entire Fittipaldi family.
May God Rest his soul and may his memory be eternal.

Pat was a dear man and a very loyal friend. We shared many good times and some difficult times with the Knights and his profound faith in the Church and the Order have served as an inspiration to me. Always honest and straight forward, you always knew were Pat stood on a subject. You could not talk him out of something he believed in, nor could you talk him into something he didn't believe. He was a great sounding board for all of us in the Knights and we are worse off without him. I love Pat and will miss him deeply. God bless you brother.

Sir Knight Pasquali "Pat" Fittipaldi was one of the most dedicated Knights that I have encountered. Brother Pat and I were a team for several years when I was District Deputy and he was my District Warden, Pat went on to become a District Deputy in his own right and founded St. Anthony Council in Fort Lauderdale. We worked together on degree teams and again in the 4th Degree Assemblies. As State Deputy, I was proud to ask Pat to come out of retirement and take on the job of District Deputy again this year. Sir Knight Pat supported me when my wife passed away earlier this year, he will never be forgotten.
Vivat Jesus Brother Pat…
