Our family will miss their uncle who was the one who teased them the most growing up, (taught Mike how to tease his nephews), remembering the hide and seek games where you would he would hide one either in the closet or on top of the refrigerator, and so many other things. Frank will miss the 8 o'clock phone calls on Tuesday night. Rest in peace Pat, knowing you were loved.
