Patrick and I were friends at Marshall Simonds Middle School. We kind of lost touch when he went to Austin Prep. I was looking for him to get back in touch. I am so saddened to see this. There are some people you just never forget, and for me, Patrick was one of them. God Bless you, Patrick. My sincere condolences to friends and family.
