Pat was a gentleman in the true sense of the word. At work, Pat was always diplomatic in his interactions, and socially it was a pleasure to converse with him. So sorry to learn of his passing.

Pat is my older Brother and he is my best friend from now and from the time we were growing up together. I always looked up to him for guidance and I always wanted to be just like him although our paths in life lead us both n different directions. Our paths in life were different and I tried my best to keep in touch with him over the years. I am really going to miss my beloved big Brother and his laughter and joking. I love you big Brother Pat and I will always remember you and you will always have a place in my heart. Good Bless and God's speed. We will see each other again and be with our parents and grand parents. I Love You more than you know or realize. Your little Brother Joey.

I worked with Pat over several decades and am saddened to learn of his passing. Pat always went beyond what was required,was an expert in his field, honest to deal with, had an excellent sense of humor, and was just an overall really nice guy. He will be missed. My sympathies go to his family.
