Patrick Kirby

To the family of Pat Kirby,
This man was instrumental during my tenure at MacClaren. I spent a few, long years with him in SITP. During that time Pat brought together, with the help of fellow colleges, a very broken, scared, and lost kid that had just created the most damage a human could to several families and all their loved ones. It was clear he cared about the health and well being of these really damaged kids above any reasoning. I guess what I am saying is thank you to his family...

Pat was my roommate for a time in Tacoma, spent a summer in Cordova Alaska, and have fond memories of a great person, a talented and intelligent man and a dear friend. I wish I had known he moved back to the area. He will be missed.

There are boys who are now men, who Pat made the difference in their growth into manhood,wholeness, and social consciousness. Great work in humanity Pat!

I worked with Pat at OSH and Maclaren. My fondest memory is when he volunteered to trade days off with me so I could spend my first Christmas with my Son.

Patrick was my husband's cousin. He had a wicked sense of humor and a special connection with his late mother, Ruth. Patrick and I braved a helicopter ride(no doors) over South Bend, WA many years ago. Rest in peace dear Patrick and sincere condolences to his partner, Kevin. Bless you for giving Patrick the happiness he deserved.

I have fond memories of working with Pat at the OSH children's program. Loved his sense of humor and aptitude for having a good time.He Influenced a lot of people in a positive way.
