To Pat's Children and Families,
We have years of very fond memories of Pat and all his family. He was always fun to be with, and did a great job with his Irish songs. Hopefully he's up there toasting a beer with my dad.
My deepest sympathies and prayers!

Pops generosity of spirit with my family was always appreciated. We all hold fond memories of Pop. It is so rare to find men that are so straight, frank and honest as Pop.
