Those who knew Pat know he was truly a man of faith who lived a full and purposeful life. Pat cherished his time at home with his wife and family. He was always up for a good laugh and conversation. His jovial humor, thought provokers, and childhood tales will be most remembered. Pat was a loving and giving brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend.
