He worked for Cedar Chemical in Arkansas, FMC & Great Lakes in West Virginia, Baker Hughes in Sand Springs, OK, and Zecco in Tulsa, OK as a chemical engineer. He enjoyed golf, watching sports, and spending time with his family. He will be remembered as kind, caring, and easy to get along with. Patrick was a great father, husband, son, and brother.
