Condolences to Pat Jr. and family. I had the pleasure and honor of working with Pat Sr. during my career. He was a gentleman with a great sense of humor. His smile could light up a room. He'll be missed by those who knew Pat. Semper Fi and Rest in Peace.

Sorry for your loss. I met Patrick at Windsor Place where my mom is. He was always kind and a gentleman. May he rest in peace.
