Pat,
Your Beautiful Wife has joined you, after just 11 months. May both of you Angels come to visit your loving family as often as possible. We know that you often came to comfort your wife. I am sure your family looks forward to the times ahead you will both visit.

Pat was the only constant person who was good and kind to me from the day i started working for the fire service. When ever i would work a call with him he was light and joking and would help me complete any task. I will miss him dearly and send my deepest sympathies to his family. Pat was larger than life and i will miss my friend.

Pat was indeed a unique individual. It surprises me how, after all these years without contact with Pat, news of his demise still shocks my senses. I pray that his family finds peace despite what must surely be a tremendous loss.
yesterday, the time you had with him on this earth, Today the time you are without him on this earth, Tomorrow, the time with him for eternity.

Grieve for just a little while, then Celebrate his life and love and cheer for him as he has joined the angels in heaven. I only met him a few times as he came to see his daughter (Michelle) at work, but the smile on his face and light in his eyes made the gentleness in his soul easy to see. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family left behind.

Pat sure was one of a kind, never did he not give me a big bear hug and kiss when he saw me and everyone else. That kindness will be missed but surely not forgotten. I learned alot from Pat and will cherish his friendship. My condolences to his family and friends for the loss of such a wonderful man.
