Dear Pat, Fran and I fondly remember time spent with you both after church on Sundays, as well as meals together. Irby's remarkable talent as an artist will always be remembered (and treasured), but indeed, his love of God, family and friends is what made him such an impressive man. Much love to you Pat. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Classic and gentle, always a delight to spend time with Pat and Irby. I know Lonny and Irby are selecting their palettes and painting more clouds for us all to enjoy when we look to the heavens. We have been so blessed to have been able to share life experiences with special men.

Irby was the most gentle soul and his paint brushes created the most beautiful view of the world that will live on forever. Pat, you two had such a pure and tender eternal love. We send love to you and your family.

Such a pleasure knowing him and having several lunch dates with him and his lovely wife Pat. A humble but captivating man during are discussions on life and art. Amazing paintings that can bring me back to my childhood in Santa Fe every time I look at them. A great loss, RIP my friend... Love to you Pat.
