Pat spent an Easter Sunday with my family and we all enjoyed his outgoing nature and witty conversation. It is indeed a tragedy that he is no longer with us.

Pat's smile, his encouragement, his zest for life, will not be forgotten. He taught me to sail, made me laugh, and teased me to distraction. His friendship was a gift, I am grateful to have been blessed with his company. Pat will be greatly missed, I am sorry for your loss.

Pat taught me to fly. So much so that I made a career out of it. He will be missed. It was a honor to have known him.
