Dear Sharon, Larry, Katie and Sam,
Sincere sympathy for the loss of your dear son and brother, Patrick. I have clear memories of the talents he displayed as a kindergarten student. In addition to his innate intellect and charm, he demonstrated agility and athleticism. His early skating ability was amazing. May memories of happy family times ease your pain and may God grant you strength as you grieve your loss.
