Patrick was a warm and friendly boy who consistently wore a smile during his years at Saint Vincent de Paul School. He was a generous soul who was truly kind to others. Patrick was very fortunate to have two highly motivated parents, who loved him, were dedicated to him, and did everything they could to enrich his life in every way possible. I am so very sorry for your loss. May God bless Patrick, his friends, and family with peace and solace.

The first time we saw Patrick was when he was playing basketball for SVdP. Our boys were shaking in their boots when they saw this tall kid come onto the court. We kept hearing cheers for Patrick from unknown voices, and realized we didn't have the only Patrick on the court! Then the boys ended up together at SHHS and became fast friends. A trip to The Rez provided years of chuckles over Pat Mc digging a hole so deep he needed to be pulled out. He bonded with our little white puppy and whenever he visited she would be sitting in his lap. His graduation speech was the culmination of his sweet and humorous style and sent all the boys off to college with a warm feeling. He will be so badly missed, our hearts go out to his family as well as our thanks for sharing their wonderful son with us.
