Patrick will be remembered as someone who never met a stranger. His kind and caring nature left an indelible mark on everyone he met. Whether he was sharing a story or lighting up a room with his laughter, he was truly the heart and soul of every gathering.

As a road warrior, he traveled extensively, forging countless friendships and leaving his mark wherever he went.

Patrick is survived by his devoted wife, Karen; his three sons, Anthony (Courtney), Michael (Rebecca), and David (Sara): his two cherished granddaughters, Isabella and Alexandra; and his brother, R. Duane (Cindy). He will also be remembered by countless friends who were touched by his warmth, humor, and generosity.
