      Merry Beth, I am sorry for yours and Izzi’s loss, as well as Uncle Dick, Aunt Grace, John and Sherry. I hadn’t seen Patrick in about 10 years, but he crosses my mind sometimes. He was always so nice to everyone. I live in Florida and won’t be able to make it back this weekend, but my thoughts will be with all of you!

      Dear Merry Beth and Izzy,
      I am so sorry for your loss. My heart truly goes out to you! We shared so many good memories together. I met Pat when i was 16 years old on White Bear Lake and we became instant friends, from that moment our bond grew stronger. Pat was more then just a friend to me. He was like a brother to me. His vibrant fun loving personality brought joy to my life. I will truly miss our friendship and the bond we shared, and the countless memories we created together.
      Pat’s spirit will live on in all of us who were lucky enough to call him a friend. He will never be forgotten. Sending you big hugs and love! My sincere sympathy! Lots of love, Krissy

    I just found out. I am so sorry to hear this. Pat was a great friend. We had some fun times together. Whenever he talked about his daughter his face would light up and have that smile. I know if the lord needs someone to pave a concrete path to heaven, Pat is now his guy. RIP my dear friend.

    I graduate with Pat from the Class of 1978. He was one handsome guy. I ran into him on Facebook, and talked for awhile. He said he wasn’t a big fan of Facebook, and that his life was very busy. John 14- I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except by me.
