Not sure what to say?

Patrick... I did a search for your name today... Earlier I had unpacked a box and found that Harley Davidson shirt you gifted me for my Birthday. I am planning on wearing it tomorrow 08/06/2024 on my way to a HD posse rally. That starts in New Hampton, New Hampshire. Crossing The U.S.A. down to San Diego. I thank you my friend, for planting the Harley dream in a very hard time and place for me. Like to think you up there watching over all of Us you soulfully touched. R.I.P. my friend MD.

Still think of your often and the memories always brings a smile. You left us way too young.

I think of you every day Pat. Someone who loved you and always will.

I just found out that Pat passed away and wanted to let his friends and family know how sad I am. It has been many years since we were together but he was a good friend and we shared some outrageous times: dinners, concerts, parties - loved it all. Thanks Pat - you'll always be remembered.

The last time I saw Pat, we sat in his apartment in Boulder, Colorado. On the wall he had a large framed poster of James Dean: the ultra cool one of him walking down a cold city street toward the camera wearing an overcoat, smoking. Pat was like that poster: ultra cool. In my younger day his “Scorpio hipness” intimidated me until the night that I needed someone to “cry” to and there he was with a big shoulder and a big heart of support. Peace, brother.

To all of Patrick's (PS) friends:
I was able to be with PS for the last few days before he passed. The people at the hospital were all great and took care of Pat incredibily well. He died a very peaceful dealth. Pat lived the last few months with two friends, Danny and Lorretta, who took care of him in a way that you would wish for any of you loved ones. They are truly wonderful people.

PS-As we discussed-Have a great trip!

Pat was a great friend of my Brother Bob "Radar" Goin. Pat took me to my first Professional Football game. It was the Broncos versus the Chargers. He made me sit on my hands because he knew I liked Dan Fouts and the Chargers. I was not allowed to cheer for the Chargers, LOL. I was able to live only because the Broncos won the game in overtime. It is a memory that will last forever. God Bless you Pat. Give my love to Bob, you two are reunited.

Patrick I will always remember the kindness you extended to me and all the crazy times we shared growing up. When I think of you now there is a sadness and sense of loss. You have been in my prayers for a long time, I will miss keeping up with you through your good friend Tom.
