Sharp Funeral Homes, Linden ChapelPatrick Michael Render Flores, age 61 went to be with our Lord, Jesus Christ on January 28th, 2026. He passed away at his home.
Patrick was born on January 5th, 1965 and was the 7th child in a family of 8 children, born to James B. Render and Audrey Flores. He spent the last 16 years of his life devoted to taking care of our father, Luis Flores. Pat had a kind heart, loved his family especially his 2 boys Ian and Liam Render Flores, sisters and brothers, nieces and nephews.
He loved the Tigers and The Red Wings but especially the Red Wings. His favorite picture was of him, his boys and the Stanley Cup! Pat loved gardening and he was always the "go to" person if you weren't sure what a plant was or needed help taking care of your plants.
Throughout his life, no matter his hardships he always maintained his "child's heart." He is fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews as Uncle Buck, with his child like enthusiasm for most things.
He was a devoted father who made sure his boys had the best education where he sent them to a school that had a classical learning curriculum. He passed his high intellect onto his two boys who are both finishing up their bachelors degrees.
He is survived by his children, Ian and Liam, his brothers Doug Render, Brian Render (Melody) John Render (Kathy), Bernie Render (Cherill), Mark Render, David Flores (Marla) and sisters Tammy Render Morris (Joe), Annetta Tersigni (Steve), Monica Pruitt.
Preceded in death by his parents, his brothers Jim Render and Luis Flores Jr. and sister Tina Malin (Rick).
