Pat has been missed in AITK. I noticed when he quit sending his regular posts of the daily meditations. I have only been a member of AITK for about 1 year, but Pat was very reliable. His dedication to the program was commendable.
Bless those of you he left behind. May you find comfort knowing you will be together again.

Pat was instrumental in helping to keep my sanity both here in Afghanstan and last year when I was in Iraq. God rest his soul, he was a wonderful person and I'm sure he is one of God's Angels :)

Pat, You were a rock that stood so firm for so many. I was only one to be so loved and cared for by your faith. I will miss you forever, but I guess this day God wanted you more. I know you will be missed by many more. I wish you peace now, just as you gave to me.

Even though I never got to meet Pat in person I know he was a great man. I am very grateful to have known him a little bit through the AAFB and AITK online groups. His shares were very inspirational and his famous signature "Keep an attitude of gratitude" is very significant in my life and that of many others. My condolences to Sally and the rest of his family.

Pat was a great inspiration to many through his online groups. He was a regular at our AAFB reunion in Hastings (NE) each year and will be missed this year. I can remember quite a few times when his often heard quote "Keep An Attitude of Gratitude" would appear in my Inbox at just the right time!

Pat was the founder of an online group I belong to AAFB that has saved my sanity many times over the last year or so. I never got to meet Pat, but he was available when able to send a smile or a limrick or encouragement.

Dear Lee, Scott, and Sally,
I regret not having been more in touch with Pat over the years since moving to Florida, but I've thought of him often with much fondness. I have many good memories of times we all spent together, and am very, very sad to learn of his passing.
My deep condolences to you and your families.
Sincerely,
Ralph Lavacca
