It is with a heavy heart, we’d like to express our sincere condolences of the passing of our dear cousin Pat. Such a good natured fellow with a kind heart. Pat always brightened a room. Now may the light of Heaven be his guide to eternal happiness. We love you, Pat.
We had the joy of meeting g Pat when he visited Bruce and Jessica In California. Truly a great man.
I was blessed to have met Pat in person even if briefly. I came to know him really well though through the eyes of his little sister, my best friend, Jessica and her husband Bruce. Through countless stories and anecdotes I learned that he was a wonderful, kind man – a loving and devoted son, brother, father and grandfather. His legacy lives on in his beautiful family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
