John "Patrick" Wayne Jr.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Cherie and Pat, you were amazing parents to this handsome young man. Patrick certainly knew his Mommy and Daddy loved him greatly and will miss him dearly. His death leaves a hole in the hearts of the many lives he touched. Blessings to you all -- you are much loved.

I never met this young man or his family, but I know he made such a difference in this world. He was gifted with virtues that he shared with so many. Joy, laughter, and the gift of putting smiles on the faces of all that he came in contact with. Yes, he will be missed but he will never stop putting peace and happiness in our hearts.
