Patrick (Pat) Huvane, 42, of Bronxville, passed away on Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Born in Englewood, NJ, on July 13, 1971, Pat spent five early years of his life in the Philippines and Singapore, then returned to New Jersey and graduated from Madison High School in 1989. He later received a Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering from Villanova University in 1993, and a Master’s degree in Business Management from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2002. A natural leader, he served five years on active duty as a Surface Warfare Officer in the United States Navy, and ultimately received an honorable discharge from the reserve as a Lt. Commander. Patrick was most recently Senior Manager of Packaging/Operations at Nestlé Waters North America. He previously built a strong reputation in brand marketing at Cadbury Schweppes and at Kraft Foods Group. Outgoing, responsible and generous, he devoted his time primarily to his family, while still leaving a lasting mark on the community, his church, softball/hockey leagues and numerous charities. No one rooted harder for the Boston Red Sox, New York Giants or N.Y. Rangers, or influenced more friends and family with a love of live music. Patrick is survived and dearly missed by his wife, Olivia (formerly Saarheim); two children, Soren Brendan and Stellan Patrick; his parents, Stephen and Barbara; his siblings, Christine, Dan, Kate, Meg, Stephen and Annie; and seven nieces and two nephews; as well as relatives and countless friends from each chapter of his exemplary life. He was predeceased by his brother Brendan. Calling hours will be held at the Fred H. McGrath and Son Funeral Home in Bronxville from 5 to 8 p.m. on Friday. A Mass of Christian Burial Will be held at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Bronxville on Saturday, June 28th at 10 a.m. In lieu of flowers, Patrick’s wishes were that the Huvane Family Educational Trust be created for the future education of his boys Soren and Stellan.
