Not sure what to say?

I lost my mother 3 months ago today, so that´s another beautiful soul lost on this day. I´ve thought about how much life he had left to live, but not i think more about how much life he lived, and how lucky I was to live a very small increment of that with him. And to see him electrify the stage was really marvelous... no one could even match the trashing/roasting of a room and performance environment better than him and CJ Sullivan. He will be missed, he is missed, but damn was the time...

I´ve had 2 dreams about Pat recently, and I´ve been thinking a lot today about Bucktown, Bridgeport and how freakin´ much I loved him.

I really miss him. he made me laugh so so So much.

This holiday I'm thankful for a lot, and one of those things is Comedy Central's interest in buying Mashup. Whether or not we do it, I will say that Pat's involvement was integral to making that project become what it is today. Even now, years after he's gone, he exerts influence comedically over all of us, and whoever sees the Mashup special, which will air for sure, will see something that Pat Brice helped make possible.
I always loved holidays in Chicago, just before we all left and...

Today I go to the How To Train Your Dragon Premiere, and that reminds me that Pat was on his way to a successful voice over career after having just signed with Innovative VoiceOver. They had high hopes for him, and I wish that i was attending this premiere with him, as I know he would have been voicing characters in animated movies one day.
We miss you PHB, always.

A Great soul never dies.
It brings us together Again and Again."

Comedy At It's Best!!

Here it is two years since Pat left us.
Friends and family still continue to share stories, laugh and feel the pain of his loss as if it were yesterday.
We can only rely on a line from the poem "REMEMBER ME"...."smile because I have lived." And live he did.
We love you Pat.
