Not sure what to say?

I was so saddened to hear of Pats passing. I knew him as a young girl at Maranatha. I shall forever remember his wonderful smile:) He was so kind. So many memories of us kids playing on the beach...I am thinking of your family at this time.

So sad to hear of Pat's passing. He was a person I truly looked up to at Hillsdale.

I am soo sorry to hear of Pat's passing. Sherri I am praying for you and your family. From the talks I had with Pat and having your boys from Toddler to youth group @ MEFC, I was always encouraged and it was an honor to know Pat. Watching him lead those young men and come and speak to our boys in youth group was inspiring. He will be missed and I know I will see him again. May God Bless you and your family and bring comfort through this time of loss< Sincerely, Dwight MacDonlad and family

Make A Difference; Wise words to live by. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. This is so sad.

With deepest sympathy, Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Sherri, my heart is deeply saddened at the news of your dear Pat's death. I will always be grateful for his kindness and respect to Ron and me, and will never forget his great smile and the joy he had in his life with you and his sons. May your times as a family be precious as you share sweet memories of your life together.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this. Coach was instrumental in our son Bryant's life on the football field and off. His guidance and spirituality will live on in our hearts and lives as well. Much love from our family to yours.

We have many fond memories of Pat and his family. Paul & Joyce Graham, Brooklyn, MI
