God put Mr. Pat and Ms. Jean on my mind today and I had to look you up. I am sorry for your family's loss. I wish I had known sooner. Mr. Pat was always full of life and fun to be around. I always enjoyed being around Mr. Pat and Ms. Jean. My parents would get together with them and play cards to the wee hours of the morning. God bless you Ms. Jean and all your family. Love you.

I will miss Uncle Pat's distinctive + surpassing zest for Life; it was evident in every conversation more serious than the Weather or sports - but most evident in his laugh and in the way he danced; he was truly unique; a generous + caring friend

We are so saddened to hear about Mr. Stafford. We have many wonderful memories of him at all of the softball games cheering the guys on. Sending much love and condolences, Mike (Mike D. as Mr.
Pat would say) and Barb Dorsey

Mrs. Stafford and Family,
I was so surprised and saddened to hear about Mr. Stafford's passing. Idlewylde's life-long Irish Squire has left the room.
I have 40+ years of hysterical and, sometimes, serious memories of my time with the Squire. A truly kind, generous and lovely fella.
God Bless and the Sweeneys will lift one in his honor, tonight.
Cheers.

Uncle Pat, the world is a little colder without your smile to warm it. And we will miss your infectious laugh that never failed to cheer us up. The world has lost a wonderful man and heaven has seen you reunited with your boys. Aunt Jean, Linda, Cindy, and Cathy, please accept our greatest sympathy for your loss. We love you and your whole family. Sandy and Tom Kreps
