I just learned of Patrick's passing and it's such a shock. Such a vibrant person. Patrick and I attended Loyola University together, and he was one of the great delights of that time for me. Always interesting and informative, he had a fabulous sense of humor and style. It is certain he is very much missed. Deepest condolences to his family.
