Patrick James Conlon

- - Patrick James Conlon, 67, passed away on Saturday, December 5, 2020 after a seven-month battle with cancer. He is survived by his beloved Sharon McGraw (nee Twachtman) and by his daughters Elizabeth Conlon Doran (Brendan) and Katherine Feldmann (Daniel). He is also survived by his siblings the Most Revered R. Daniel Conlon, Michael (Cynthia), Gregory (Lee Ann), Mary Kay (Chip Plumb), William (Gail) and many cherished nieces and nephews.

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Patrick was the son of Robert Joseph Conlon and the late Carla Jane Conlon (nee Holzman). He graduated from Purcell High School and earned a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Cincinnati leading to a successful career in technology sales. A lifelong spiritual seeker, he walked the path of a good and faithful servant teaching many years of Sunday school, helping the homeless, and coaching youth sports. He strove to live his mantra of "peace and love." In his retirement he traveled with Sharon, cared for his father, spent time with loved ones and, especially, relished his role as "Grandtini" to his adoring granddaughters.

Patrick will be remembered for his outsized personality, jovial spirit, and passion for life. He had an infectious smile with an Irish twinkle in his eye. He was lover of music who danced intentionally to his own beat. He will be greatly missed by the many friends and family whose lives he touched.

The funeral services will be postponed until we can safely celebrate his full life.

Memorial donations may be made to an organization close to Patrick's heart: Brad's Blessings, c/o Jerry Giesting, 5922 Cambridge Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45230. Condolences to rohdefuneral.com.

Pat was a good friend since high school days. Truly a peaceful and giving person, Pat was easy to be with, light-hearted, good-natured, and often had a joke to share. He made our world a better place for everyone. May his values of peace and love be examples for us to practice in his memory. We send our deepest condolences to Pat's family, and especially to his dear Sharon with whom Pat shared much love over many years. May the sorrow of Pat's loss be comforted by the family and friends who will hold Pat's love in their hearts always.
