To Pat's family:



Please know that my prayers are with you during this time.



I am the lady mentioned during the Eulogy from Toastmasters. I just wanted you to know how much I respected, adored, and admired Pat. He was the epitome of gentle man. He was always so gracious and simply radiated peace. I've learned so much from him and I am thankful to God for allowing our paths in life to cross. I will be eternally grateful for his generosity and benelovence.



Do know that you can contact me at anytime for any reason.
