Patrick was a good man, kind soul and excellent tennis player. We often practiced and played tennis together, and had some great matches. i often think of Patrick and some of his on the court funny remarks. Patrick was a good friend, tennis player, and listener who left us too soon.

Every time I go to my Grandmothers in East Bradford West Chester, I always go past Embreeville Mill and pass your road around the bend. Each time i pass your road i think of all the good memories we had. Does anyone know if he has a grave or was cremated because i would love to visit his grave if there is one.

I'm going to miss you Patrick. You have helped me greatly for many years as my therapist, you have helped me get through a lot and i will never forget it. I've seen a lot of therapists in my life but none of them compares to how kind, gentle, calm, kind soul for helping others, you truly had a big heart made of gold. I will always taking those walks with you down to the pond at Holcomb in Kennett Square, we had soo much fun together and we liked the same things and every walk we had was special to me and i have nothing but good memories of you in my heart. I still to this day think of you when i pass your road in Embreeville and think of all the good times we had. May you rest in peace in heaven for you are among the gentlest kindest souls I have ever met. You will be greatly missed Patrick.

You will be remembered dear friend for the love of game, friends, loved ones, and the natural world you enjoyed so deeply. I will remember the intensity in which you embraced what mattered to you most in life and the gracious manner in which you shared many of those interests with me - bless you and rest in peace.

Thinking of u Pat

October 28, 2015

I was surprised and sadden to hear of Patrick's passing. Patrick and I were tennis friends who played tennis for several years . Patrick took pride in his tennis game especially his serve . He loved a competitive match and enjoyed just practicing to improve his game. He often brought his dog to our practices since he love spending time with him. I can remember his excitement on winning a competive doubles match! With high fives and an occasional chest bump. Patrick loved to win!

At the same time, Patrick was a kind , gentle , good natured man , who found enjoyment helping others .

Patrick left us too soon and I will miss him. May he rest in pease in Gods arms and play his best tennis in Heaven!

Patrick was a good friend. He and I shared many a tennis match, and I learned more about the game playing with him. (I hope he has forgiven me for my line calls!) I had the pleasure of working with Patrick professionally as well.

Patrick also was a friend off the court. He and I often talked about our personal lives, and he always was an attentive and caring listener, for which I appreciated him greatly. We all will miss him.

I was so sad to hear about Patrick's passing. He was a good friend, and a good soul, who spent his career trying to help others. He left us too soon.

Many times over the last several years in search of my close friend, Patrick was there and greeted me instead. He is a gentle soul. Humble and Hopeful. Many times we all fall short of offering each other a perfect love, and it is only made available to us by our Heavenly Father. His ways are high, and sometimes past finding out. Patrick has that knowledge now. I am comforted by knowing that there is fullness of joy in the presence of the Lord.
