Never in my life have I met a more selfless person then Patrick Floyd. He volunteered his time to help me coach the softball team, even though he knew very little about the sport. In a very short three years, he became one of my very best friends! "Our" team, will always live in your immortal words, "Hit ball, run fast!" Miss you bunches Muffin!
