Administrative Assistant
Patricia (Patti) Beirne – Administrative Assistant
​
Most of my life I’ve been a resident in Essex County currently living in Caldwell, NJ and a 2006 graduate of Caldwell University. After a 40+ year career as a Senior Account Manager in Group Insurance
working for several major companies, I retired. Thence, I explored other opportunities where my skills would be a benefit to others. After a bout with
Covid 19 in March of 2020, I began to do a job search. A true miracle; I came across a posting for First Presbyterian Church of Verona(FPCV) was
hired and loving it!
This Church and all its about, the Pastor and the people of faith whom I’ve met here have made an impact on my life. I found a home and it’s not a job,
it’s a Blessing!
