Ever since I was a little girl, you were larger than life in my eyes. You raised a beautiful family with my Godmother, and my cousins were blessed to have you for a father. Thank you for sharing love and kindness with me in this life, and for the loving way you always treated my Gram, Marie. I pray you are with Lynn and I know together you will continue to watch over your family. You are missed, Pat, and will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace.
Love,
Maureen
