I was wondering how Patrick was doing for I had not seen him since I stopped working at Captain D's. I was very sad when I heard of his passing. I will pray for you and your family and hope that you will find comfort in knowing that he is with the lord and in a better place.

AS A MEMBER OF STAFF AT THE BACKUS CHILDRENS OUT-PATIENT,I GO TO THE PEDS ICU UNIT EVERY MONDAY.THERE WAS NEVER A TIME THAT PATRICKS FAMILY WAS NOT THERE,HOLDING HIS HAND OR GENTLY RUBBING HIS ARM.THEY ALWAYS SMILED AND SPOKE EVEN DURING PATRICKS BAD TIMES,EVEN WITH THE PAIN SHOWING IN THEIR EYES.I DIDN'T KNOW PATRICK EXCEPT AT THE HOSPITAL,BUT I KNEW HE WAS LOVED,AND HE MUST HAVE BEEN A WONDERFUL PERSON,JUST SEEING HIS FAMILY'S LOVE.I KNOW HE IS AT LAST FREE OF ILLNESS,AND HAS A SMILE ON HIS FACE.

We have no words that could convey our sympathy for the loss that you have experienced, so let us use someone elses words: "Let not your heart be troubled . . . In my Father's house are many mansions, I go to prepare a place for you . . . so that where I am there you may be also." You knew Ptrick was going to his new house when he left the hospital, but I guess you just didn't realize it was going to be a mansion.
Patrick was such blessing to us and to everyone he was around. He had a huge smile and heart filled with lots of love. I know he will be missed but he will never be forgotten.
With all our love,
Andy and Debbie Bullock

My heart aches for your loss. I didn’t have the pleasure of knowing Patrick but would see him at the office occasionally. His smile was contagious and his disposition sweet. I know there are no words I can say to comfort your broken heart but I want you to know that I am here if you need anything. I can listen and know your pain if nothing else. You will be in my prayers daily. Take comfort in knowing that Patrick is with our Lord and will never suffer again.
May God Bless.
