Margie and Family, Jerry and I were so very sad to hear about Pat or as Jerry always called him Fat Dog. Jerry reminised about their young years and growing up. Our sympathy to you and the girls.

Margie, Girls & Family ~

We will all miss "Fat Dog" as he was always larger than life to us girls. His booming voice & his hearty laugh. Each of us girls has our own fond memories of him. Remember the weekend we all got stuck over in Victoria?

He loved the 3 of us like we were his own.

We feel great sadness with his loss. Our parents are so glad that they had time with both of of you last year when you came to San Diego.

Margie, girls and...

Marlene and family. I read of your dad's passing and wanted to tell you I'm sorry for your loss. I remember your family as being very close. I lost my dad 1n 1983 and my mom on Thanksgiving 2008. Remember all the fun and laughter you all had together. Keep your family close and you'll get through it together. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Marlene, I often think of all the fun and crazy times we had together. Take care and God Bless you all. If you want a shoulder to cry on...

Margie and Girls - My sisters (Vivian and Maria) and pop (Chayo) send our condolences and love to you all. My mother was blessed to be able to join you for the services. She wouldnt have lived with herself had she not made the trip up to Tacoma to be with the family. My father sends his love to all of you. We all have fond memories that we share with the Goodens and the Colmenero's in El Cajon & Tacoma. Our Longshore/ILWU Local #29 family will forever be tied together. I will never forget...
