Patrick T. Schill

Pat, I remember you as a boy and a young man, You were then close to my brother Rick Gruszynski and played in a band in our basement. You were one of the cub scouts in my mom's den. She loved you all. I know Ric has missed his friends for years. You were one of his best and truest. Heaven has itself a pretty good drummer and a wonderful soul. My condolences to your family.

Hi, All - if anyone would like to attend my dad's gathering, or just reach out, my email address is [email protected] . Thank you so much for the kind words - they mean the world.

xoxo,
Mandy

My heart is so sad… but I am reminded of good times... how Pat and I used to play guitar and sing together …..eat pizza and laugh…..almost a lifetime ago You live on in our memories my dear friend. Thank you for being in my life.

My best boyhood friend from age 11~15, what dear and fantastic adventures we had! Building Radio Shack Wilkie talkies, discovering The Beatles, playing in Arlington with Mark Rooke, doing your Sunday paper route, going downtown Sunday mornings, the surplus store, the Palace Theatre balcony, Butter Burger, green tea and French fries at Big Boys, our basement band practices, you our lead singer, singing As Tears Go By, discovering girls, the hospital cafeteria, the crosswalk, evading greasers...
