It's been a long time since I've seen Patrick, but I have many memories of time spent with him and Caroline and his children. Patrick had so many wonderful qualities, he was quick to laugh, loved to fish and was a caring father. He always treated me as one of the family whenever I visited and I will always appreciate that. It's funny how you remember people you don't see often in snippets of your time together. I remember him being banned from playing monopoly (too competitive), driving out the road to enjoy a day at the beach and fitting in a bit of fishing and a crazy ride on the Tustamena, when the waves in the night were bigger than the ship. I remember him whipping up a peanut butter and honey sandwich as a midnight snack. I hope he's enjoying one right now. Be well friend and rest in peace. Your legacy will live on in your family and in their hearts.
