Sorry for your loss. He was an inspiration to us at Highmoor Farm, as, in his 60's he asked me if he could have a job, being an old potato farmer. I hired him and he worked circles around the younger employees, all with a caring smile and laugh. I learned a lot from Pat about living life to the fullest, which he did.

Music, when soft voices die
Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.
Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the beloved's bed;
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
