Obituary For Patrick Alan Dulli

Patrick (Pat) passed away unexpectedly but peacefully on Thursday, July 21, 2016 at home. We lost a wonderful devoted husband, dedicated dad, loving son and brother. Pat was born in 1954 in Hamilton, Ohio to Dorothy Hubbard and Albert Dulli. He was on the swimming and diving teams in which he won several awards. In 1972 after graduation from high school, Pat joined the US Marine Corps and was sent to Parris Island for boot camp. Pat served in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Iwakuni, Japan and Parris Island, South Caroline where he met his future wife Diane.

After departing the Marine Corps in 1976 Pat moved to the bay area to be close to his mother and sister. During those years Pat attended Cal State East Bay and worked several different jobs until he fully dedicated himself to his trade - Custom Window Covering Installer. Pat worked over 40 years for several companies and decorators. He was a dedicated craftsman that took pride in his work.

Family meant everything to Pat. He is survived by Diane, his wife of 32 years, his son Travis, his daughter Tess, his niece Megan, his mother Dorothy, and sister Gretchen. Pat enjoyed coaching and watching Travis and Tess’s little league teams. When Travis played on the UC Davis Football Team, Pat would not miss home games. He was so proud of Travis for all his accomplishments. Pat was so proud of Tess graduation with BS in Nursing from Sacramento State. Words cannot express how much joy and love family brought to Pat.

Pat enjoyed working on home projects and having family gatherings. He loved telling stories and jokes. Pat had a knack for remembering lines from famous movies, songs & saying. His passing leaves a huge void in our hearts, but our memories will provide a path from sorrow and sadness to eventual acceptance and peace.

A Memorial Service will be held for Pat on Saturday, July 30th, 11am at Fremont Chapel of the Roses, 1940 Peralta Blvd., Fremont, CA 94536.

    Although we never really knew each other as adults, you were always my big brother when we were kids. I wish to express my deepest sympathies to the Dulli family. Pat, you had a tremendous influence on me growing up. Thank you for your words of encouragement! I have never forgotten you... Nor will I ever forget you. Your step-brother, Paul Pyles, MD

    Although our lives took different paths after the passing of our father, I thought of you often and imagined you had a family of your own. You have made a difference and I know you will be missed. My prayer is for your immediate family, that they find peace in your passing knowing you are with God. Your step-sister, Mikki Stooksbury, Knoxville, Tn.
