It's hard to fathom it's actually been ten years since you were summoned home, leaving us behind bereft by your loss
Your gentle heart and soul touched so many in your short time walking on earth and will be forever remembered, my sweet friend.

Will always miss Patrick. He was so kind and generous, and a fast friend. I wish I'd known him for years to come. He is gone too soon.

Patrick was one of my fondest childhood memories from Chicago. The music he was so passionate about has followed me all these days. I will never forget him. My heartfelt sympathies go out to his family and loved ones.

Patrick- Always enjoyed your posts and I'm almost embarrassed to say how many lyrics I've learned from your posts. Thank you for your quick wit, uplifting words and scathing(at times) editorials. You will be missed.
Julie- praying you are completely surrounded by love but also given enough space to breathe. Live well.

My friend Patrick, I will continue to live each day of my life with the kindness and compassion you have shone so many. I will miss our conversations of wit and humor. Julie will be ok. You've left her with many friends and they will not let you down. You were a wonderful example of human kind. Thanks for being my friend. Denise

Feeling so sad that you left us all so suddenly and unprepared to face our days without your loving personality, your sweetness and humanity. Goodbye dear friend, to say you will be missed just doesn't describe how I feel. You will be forever in our hearts and minds and thank you for all you gave in friendship.

My deepest condolences. I know that I will miss Pat.
Those we Love remain with us,
for Love itself lives on.
Cherished memories never fade,
because a loved one is gone.
Those we Love can never be,
more than a thought apart.
For as long as there is a memory,
they'll live on in our heart.
