Pat and went thru police academy at 710 west O'Brien street. We where in the same class. We graduated together and then we assigned different places. Pat was always a close friend. We met several times during our lives since we lived in the same neighborhood. Several of us became police officers, Bob Glenn, Bill Ssherlock. We had a great crew. I will always remember Pat throughout my remaining life. God bless and keep him!

Pat and I were in the same class at the CPD academy in 1966. We have been friends since then. My mother also passed in 2009. God care for them both!

I was deeply saddened when I learned of Pat's death. He will always be my favorite policeman since I was a kid.
May I extend my condolences to his wife and family, and I pray they have strength to carry them through this tough time.

Dear Laura, Dawn, Kelly and Patrick,
I was deeply saddened by the news of your father's death. I believe your dad had a hard life, even before he became ill toward the end, but he always had a smile for all.
Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, you are all in my thoughts often and I pray that God comforts you in this time of bereavement. Now Mom, Dad, Uncle Bill and all your grandparents are watching over you from Heaven.
Love,
Aunt JoAnne and Bill, Jr.

My deepest sympathies to Pat's family and friends. I always liked Pat. We went to St.Laurence and Mt.Carmel together. We even went further back, to 69th and Woodlawn. Pat was a year older than me and I remember him teaching me to tie my shoes.

"It seems in a moment, your whole world can shatter-
like morning dreams they just disappear,
like dust in your hand falling to the floor
how can life ever be the same,
it's all too easy to take so much for granted
but it's so hard to find the word to say
like a castle in the sand the water takes away
how can life ever be the same
Your old friend Mike McGrenera
