Very sad , but Patrick will be remembered and stay in our hearts.
Remembering Patrick,
Pat was one of my best friends in high school at Bishop Whelan and at St. Joseph’s Teachers College. We hung around, played no sports, went for pizza, and laughed a lot. In 2010 Pat tracked me down here in Ontario and came to visit. It was as if the 50 years in-between had never happened. He was still as funny as ever. I’m so sad to hear of his death. My condolences to his family and friends.
