Earlier today

First met Pat in 2012 in starting up a fire alarm division for Patriot Security Group, a subsidiary to Andromeda Technology. When I was first interviewed for a job position Pat asked me at the end of the interview if I could give the first name of those present around in the conference room table (6 people) and I was able to correctly other than his own name I thought it was Dan. I told him not too bad I was only off two letters - Lol. It´s been a running joke between us for 13 years. I loved the guy and he will be deeply missed. My heart goes out to his entire family, his two partners in business Jeff and Bill, and the entire staff at Andromeda Technology along with their families. He was loved, respected, and will be deeply missed. You put up a great fight ..... until we meet again my dear friend.
