Patrick "Pat" Trujillo

Pat was a great and generous friend for life. I have dozens of his drawings of me and my family members. I saved them all. He was the one person I knew that truly lived up to the adage "if you love what you do you will not work a day in your life." Rest in peace my friend.

We had several occasions where Pat was hired to do caricatures at parties etc. I believe he even did some at debut parties. I have all my drawings and will cherish them. He was very talented, and a very nice person. I´m Very sorry for your loss.

In 1977, Pat, another Los Alamos classmate and I got paired up for a round of golf with an actor who was in Albuquerque filming the movie "Convoy." Afterward, at the "19th hole," there was Pat drawing a caricature of Ernest Borgnine - both of them laughing away. What a memorable day. Pat was born to draw - and became one of the great caricature artists of our time. No telling how many thousands of caricatures he drew during his lifetime. He had the personality for the job as he could...

As one of my neighboring big brothers, Patrick was always friendly to me and my siblings. The last caricatures he did for us was at a May Fest at St Charles in Albuquerque. I still have my husband´s likeness hanging up! Pat was a beautiful soul!

Friends since age 5, I am deeply saddened and will miss him greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Very sorry for your loss. The few times that I met your Dad, he was a charming, kind and welcoming gentleman.

A great friend and my chief golfing buddy. I loved him and he will be sorely missed
