He was born on May 8, 1951, in Jackson, Michigan to Donald William and Elizabeth Genoa (Trimble) Willnow. Patrick married the love of his life, Kathy Lausch, on April 15, 1972, in Michigan Center, Michigan and they spent 53 happy years together. Patrick attended Flight School in Florida and served honorably in the National Guard. He was a jack of all trades, building all of the homes his family lived in, restoring vintage cars, becoming a pilot and boat captain, and enjoying woodworking. Patrick owned and operated Aire-Flo Heating for 34 years. He was a man of many interests and enjoyed traveling, boating, and gambling. Most of all, though, he loved spending time with his family and friends. He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, and grandpa. Patrick will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
