Not sure what to say?

Dear Tonia.... I was saddened to learn of Pat's passing. Please accept my condolences. Pat would always reach out to me at Nevada games and other social events that we attended... often inquiring about Kendyl. I always appreciated that.

It was my honor to work with Pat at Hug High School from 2000 - 2003. I was the Dean of Students and worked closely with Pat. I can only describe Pat as a respectful and caring gentleman. He worked closely with the coaches, but his passion was always focused on the students.
My condolences to his family, Pat left us way to early.
Respectfully,
Allen M. Beebe, Ret.

Dear Cunning Family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Pat was a great guy.

So sorry for your lost Tonia

Toni, I am sorry to hear of Pat's passing. Pat was such a fine individuala rare combination of so many good thingshonesty, integrity, quiet confidence, humility, intelligence, humor, calmness, and loyalty. Educators are often tritely praised for liking' kids. Not Pat. He loved kids and really cared. Working with Pat was a privilege. He may have been a math teacher, but he taught all of us who came in contact with him how to treat each other with respect and dignity. He set a high bar...

Pat was one of the finest, most thoughtful, and kind individuals one could every know. He was also a superb educator and a wonderful colleague. Hug High School and its students, parents and staff was a better place for all of us simply because Pat was there.

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Cunning at Hug High School both as a colleague and when collecting tickets at the various athletic games. I loved hearing about some of Pat's life adventures and stories. He was a very warm and kind gentleman to know. I enjoyed working with Pat. I am sorry he had to leave us so young.
