James Patrick Godhard

Just learned of Pat´s passing. Such great memories of both Pat and Sherry over the many years. My wife and Sherry both attended HS together and I had so many years working with Pat. A great friend.

I first met Pat when both of us were sent to three days of training in Virginia Beach. In its typical cheapskate style, Parole and Probation forced two supervisors to bunk in the same room. I was apprehensive, but we instantly became great friends. We shared a love of salt water and especially Cape Henlopen State Park where we camped and fished together. Of all my friends, he was the one my son liked the best, and he was the one I had the most fun with. I will miss him terribly.

Loved talking to Pat about football. He loved Maryland Terps and kept up with Coastal Carolina. I took care of his yard and we became friends. I will miss Pat, he was a good man. Prayers for his family.

My husband Mick I were friends with Pat and Sherry since the 1970s. Pat and Mick ran a halfway house together and Pat was in our wedding. Sherry and I became close friends as well. All four of us enjoyed a unique and strong friendship lasting through the birth our children and into retirement. After we lost Sherry, we kept in touch with Pat when he moved to South Carolina. We will never forget the good times! Much love to his wonderful children and grandchildren.

Rest in Peace Grampy! We will miss you! Love Lola, Kandyce, Bodhi, Michael & Joe

Pat was a good friend and we both liked and spoke often about UofMayland sports. I am going to have to find someone else to talk Terps with. Miss you.
