Patrick was truly a friend for life;
A great loving father who wanted to provide his son, Ian, all the opportunities he did not have when he was growing up .

His deep jovial laughter could be heard resonating throughout any gathering!

Patrick, was a master storyteller, with an amazing gift for hitting the punchlines, especially the Ole and Lena jokes

He enjoyed many sports : hunting , fishing, baseball, and especially golf.

Although a world traveler, of many wild adventures, he would say that some of the best scenery in the world could be seen on a golf course . No wonder so many vacations involved golfing.

He adored his Labrador hunting companions: Daisy, Sure-Shot -Double-Or-Nothing and Sunny.

He also loved playing the card game Buck-euchre with his dear friends.

He shared in his later years that he really wished to help others more in some way.
He said he loved life itself . "I loved to live!" He was deeply grateful for his friends who were there for him throughout his life .

Most of all, he enjoyed celebrating birthdays, events , and especially Christmas!
