Not sure what to say?

To Penny, Clark, Anita, and all of Patrick's family,
We have only just learned this tragic news, and are sending you our thoughts and prayers. We are very grateful for the wonderful times we had at Star Hampshire weekends.
Our hearts are with you.
With love and sympathy,
Deborah Campbell & Kate Campbell-Strauss

I would like to offer my deepest sympathies to Patricks family, friends and GBM team mates. I knew Patrick when I lived in NH and trained with the Great Bay Masters swim club, and knew him to be a wonderful individual and a great competitor... he will be missed by all.

Patrick was a wonderful cheerful kindred soul. I am very grateful that he reintroduced me to contra dancing after a 25 year hiatus for me. I am grateful for the time he took to show me a few pointers to make sure I would be comfortable on the dance floor. He always made the effort to make sure I felt included.

I had the pleasure and honor of knowing Patrick professionally through his architectural work for the New Hampshire Air National Guard at Pease ANG Base in Newington, NH where I serve as Base Architect. In my 60+ years of architectural career I met many people worthy of admiration and respect, but Patrick very quickly gained in my mind a high position among them. His approach to complex architectural design projects were nothing short of total focus which resulted in superbly coordinated...

I'm so glad to have had the honor and pleasure of knowing Patrick - I just wish Ralph and I had met him and Penny sooner. Our memories of him will always be tied to the Star Hampshire weekend on Star Island and the Ralph Page weekend in Durham, as well as the other places where we enjoyed a dance together.
One of the bits of conversation that sticks in my mind is him telling us that he was actually looking forward to getting a little older so he could swim against people older than he,...

I am very sorry to hear of Patrick's passing. Our parents were friends in Flint and played golf together at The Flint Golf Club. I remember going to their house on the east side (it was such a cool house) and although Molly and I hung out together, I remember her brothers being around. I remember when the Stevens moved away and we lost contact with them. Patrick sounded like he loved life and was not going to miss a single moment. There are not too many people in this world that can say that....

Dear Penny, Clark & Anita, I feel so lucky to have known Patrick. I smile when I think back to his wedding to Penny, my friend from MHC. I cherish my last trip to Portsmouth. Patrick took me swimming, drove me around to admire the sites of Portsmouth and entertain me while Penny worked. Patrick's warm smile and endearing ways brought joy into the world. I shall miss him and send my love to his beloved family.

I have known Patrick since the late 1980's, where I met him and his children at South Church. He and my husband Jonathan became good friends, and when Penny joined his life we rejoiced with him. And now we mourn with her and with Anita and Clark, and with all of Patrick's family. He was a good, dear man and will be greatly missed!

My heart goes out to Patrick's family.
I went to junior and senior high with Patrick and kept in touch, mostly by Christmas cards, over the years.

I visited Patrick when he was living near Plattsburgh with his cousins, who built a wonderful house with a green roof. He had ridden his bicycle out there from Flint, I believe. I must have been 1976.

My husband and I attended a Halloween Party in Flint at Pat and Janice's house. Patrick was map man, he made a shirt of road...
