Duncan Patrick Obituary

PATRICK, DUNCAN ERIC, crossed over to be with God in Heaven in the early morning hours on September 6, 2012 at the age of 55.

Duncan was known for his charm, his quick smile, and his willingness to share what he had with others. He brought laughter, to all who knew him. He used to say "If you aren't laughing, you're wasting oxygen". Duncan also felt that his greatest gift to the world was his daughter, Crystal, who traveled to Florida to be by his side in his last hours.

Born on October 2, 1956 in Louisville, KY, the youngest of six children, he is preceded in death by his mother, Betty (Brester) Patrick; his father, Hugh Patrick; his brother, Michael Patrick; and his sister, Stephanie Patrick.

Duncan is survived by his daughter, Crystal Patrick; his sister, Tracy (Patrick) Dixon; and his brothers, Shawn and Kevin Patrick.

A celebration of his life will be held at a date yet to be determined. Family and friends will be notified of the place and time.
