Patricia Curcio

Patricia Ann Curcio, 86, of Neptune, passed away peacefully on March 14, 2026, at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune.

Born in 1939 in Millstone Township to John and Alice Bradham, Patricia moved to Freehold where she met the love of her life, Samuel F. Curcio, Jr. They shared 52 years of marriage until Sam’s passing in September 2010. Pat proudly served as a Lieutenant in the Civil Air Patrol, holding the role of Finance Officer. As a devoted military spouse, she steadfastly supported Sam throughout his 42-year career in the United States Air Force. While he was away on overseas tours, she raised their five children and cared for their home with strength, dedication, and grace.

A lifelong faithful Catholic and communicant of Holy Innocents Church in Neptune, Pat placed family at the center of her world. She cherished time spent with loved ones, enjoyed seafood—especially crab legs—watched Family Feud with Steve Harvey, and loved playing dominos and UNO with family and friends. An avid Elvis Presley fan, she and Sam traveled extensively across the country after his retirement, with Graceland among her most treasured destinations.

Pat will be remembered for her deep devotion to family, her unwavering support of her husband’s service, and the warmth and love she shared with everyone who knew her. She is survived by her children Samuel Curcio III, John Curcio and his wife Kay, all of Gainesville, Florida, Michael Curcio and his wife Debbie of Neptune, Theresa Robinson and her husband Dave of McDonough, Georgia, and Mary Alice Titus and her husband Jim of Neptune; four grandchildren, Jessica Petracorro and her husband Paul, John Curcio Jr., Meghan Marvinny and her wife Ilana, and Mandy Gamble and her husband Sean; five great-grandsons and three great-granddaughters; her sister Lanie Bostjancic and her husband Frank of Freehold; and many loving nieces and nephews.
