Patrick Howard Tholl, age 68, passed away on December 24, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, love, and unforgettable memories.

Pat was born in Chicago, Illinois, and raised in Holy Cross, Wisconsin. He graduated from Ozaukee High School and continued his education at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse. He was one of four children and is survived by his sister Linda and brother Mike. He was preceded in death by his beloved sister, Sharon.

In 1987, Pat moved to Florida, where he met the love of his life, Barbara Glass. Together they shared 38 wonderful years filled with adventure, companionship, and countless laughs. Their bond was one of true partnership and deep love.

Pat spent several years building golf courses, a career that reflected both his strong work ethic and his love for the game. Outside of work, he truly embraced life. He enjoyed traveling, golfing, bowling, and football. He was a die-hard fan of University of Alabama football, the Wisconsin Badgers, and the Green Bay Packers. He also took great pride in maintaining a pristine yard, which was always a point of admiration.

Known as the life of the party, Pat had a magnetic personality. He loved to dance, have a good time, and most of all, make people laugh. His quick wit and perfectly timed one-liners often left friends and family laughing to the point of tears. Pat's humor, warmth, and joy for life touched everyone who knew him.

Pat will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
