Very sad and heartbreaking to hear this devastating news about Patrick. He went to school with my son Jeremiah Martin at St. Mary's. I wish there was something I could say to help you feel better, but know first hand this is a personal process. Believe it or not, someday you will feel better. I feel you will never get over it, but in time will learn to accept his physical absence and cherish all of the wonderful memories you had with him for over twenty-five year! Please know Patrick will never ever be forgotten and will be missed by all who knew and loved him. With the deepest of sympathy, Holly Martin McFaul

My heart breaks for Lois, Chip and family and for all of us who knew and loved Patrick. I will miss him forever.
May his life be an inspiration for us to love unselfishly, see joy in the moment and appreciate one another-like Patrick.
