Patrick Warren Baeszler

Pat always was the kind of person to go out of his way to say hi to me. One of the nicest guys I´ve ever known.

Never seemed to have a bad thing to say about anyone. Nothing but a good time.

Rest in peace brother.

I've known Pat since the early days of P.S. 45. For nearly 25 years he was a close friend and someone you could rely on to put a smile on your face.

While he was humble and never took himself too seriously, he had a serious impact on all of us.

His presence was felt everywhere on the Island. Our group of friends still laughs about how he somehow knew someone no matter where we went. That's just who Pat was. You wanted to be where he was and appreciated every moment, every zing and every song.

The legend of Patrick Baeszler lives on. We all love you, Pat. Thank you for everything.
