Supported by her loving family, Patricia J. Montanari 87, passed peacefully on November 13, 2025 in Amber Pennsylvania.

      After moving to the Wildwoods at a very young age, she graduated from Wildwood High School and made Wildwood Crest her lifelong home.  Her warmth smile and positive caring nature touched many, many lives. Along with her late husband, Mario they ran the very popular Ocean’s Restaurant in the Pan America hotel for over 30 years.  Her concern and care for their guests and staff was only overshadowed by that same care for her family.  Her presence made everyone feel like they were a supported friend. Her enthusiastic work ethic continued late in life as Pat added her service energy to the Seapointe Village team. 

     Pat’s cards and numerous phone calls will be greatly missed. Regardless of what  she was dealing with Pat always had care and concern for everyone whether family, friend or stranger.

     Mom, Patsy, MiMi could always be counted upon for advice, support, positive energy, love and “Cocktails and Conversation.”

     Pat is survived by her daughter Donna (Kirk), son Brian (Mark) grandchildren Kira (Jon) and Shane.

     Celebration of Life will be held at Ingersoll-Greenwood funeral home, 1201 Central Avenue, North Wildwood NJ on December 6, 2025.  Respects from 9:30-11:00 am, followed by a service.
