Patrick, we will miss you, your witty sense of humor and your smile so much. Thank you for everything and the laughs. You were more like a Grand Father too Bill and I than a neighbor. Much love and God Bless

Uncle Pat was beyond wonderful. His brother (Dan) was my uncle by marriage and Pat was in my life from birth thru my teens. He was a warm, courageous, and kind man. His care for his mom for decades showed his generous manners. Although I had not seen him recently, I know he is playing piano in Heaven and making people smile with his stories. Bye, Uncle Pat.

Dearest Pat,
I am so privileged to have known you for the past several years at Larkspur. You always made a person feel like they were the most important one in the room when speaking to them. Larkspur will never be the same without you. Your beautiful piano music will always be a piece of Larkspur.
Rest in Peace my dear friend.

I appreciate the Wichita Eagle story by Carrie Rengers. I was fortunate to have Pat as my neighbor for 20 years, and became his backup at Petroleum Club and Terradyne. When he lived next door, his mother lived with him and we visited daily when he was at WSU. He was a sponge for all things educational! He was very fond of dogs and was a "caretaker" for the Humane Society, trying to nurse some back to health. He had a vast knowledge of everything and a brain that wouldn't quit! I am fortunate to have known him for so long. Bless you, Dear Pat, born on St. Patrick's Day! -- Francene Sharp
