My deepest sympathy to the family and many friends of Sal. His life touched so many at FedEx and was loved by all. He will truly be missed, but will never be forgotten. Alexis Hull
With deepest sympathy,
I worked with Sal at both the call center and the ramp. Roger worked with him when Sal drove heavyweight freight. Sal was fun to work with because of his sense of humor. He was a very kind man that cared about everyone. We are proud to have counted him as a friend. He will be missed! RIP Sal!
Sending Heartfelt Sympathy to the Patterson Family. Sal will be missed but never forgotten. He was a wonderful coworker and friend 🙏🏽
Sal, you will be missed by so many friends and family. I remember the times we shared at FedEx in dispatch and heavyweight he was a true friend and co worker. I will miss him deeply. Renae V Thomas
