Went school with Pat from 3rd grade on, got to speak with Pat at our last reunion at the Double Tree. Very glad to had a chance to speak again. On a side note I noticed a sister was married to a Ron Price, was he from Bloomington, I had a cousin on my dad's mothers side with that name. My condolences to all his family and loved ones.
