We had the privilege of knowing Patrick the last 2 years through our son, Elliot. He was a wonderful young man, bright, articulate, handsome & a joy to know. He always spoke very highly of his mom & brother & always had a hearty appetite! He will be sorely missed & we will continue praying for the family. With sympathy & fondness.

I knew Patrick for a few years as he attended Cal State Fullerton. I can’t say a day went by where I was around him and didn’t see that big smile of his. His laugh was contagious and his heart was bigger than any other. I wrote an article in the school paper about his enormous triumphs in life and it was amazing because of the ambition he always had(http://www.dailytitan.com/2010/11/internship-produces-career-opportunity/). I always looked up to him as an older brother, and sought him out for wise advice about anything and everything. He had attributes I always admired and always will; A positive radiance is what always reassured me he was one of my most treasured friends.
BROKEN HEARTED. LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

Patrick worked for our AmeriCorps Program with the Washington Conservation Corps. He was always working hard outdoors in all kinds of weather. Patrick was a strong team player and was friends with his whole team. I always remember Pat with that great smile. Pat’s demonstrated a commitment to serve others and make this world a better place for all of us.
Our lives were rewarded when Patrick played baseball with our son in Junior High years. When Patrick’s Dad passed away, it gave us the opportunity to take the boys fishing and to pro baseball games. After High School we haven’t had much chance to see him, however we kept up via Alice, as she walks the neighborhood. Our prayers for the family continues daily and for Patrick’s eternal life.
Our hearts ache hearing about the loss of such a bright young man. He made his mom very proud and happy. When I would catch up with Alice on her neighborhood walks, her smile would shine so bright about both her sons.
Alice and Mark, our condolences for your loss. May your fond memories of Patrick ease your sorrow.
