I met Patrick and Kathy through my wife, Debbie - and we all became such good friends. I treasure the time I spent with Patrick over lunch at Palomar or the Crow's Nest...or the many times at our homes. Patrick always had a cheerful and upbeat attitude toward people and life - and made the world a better place because of who he was. Patrick was one of my very best friends and I will miss him very, very much.

Pat was my best friend from the day we met, Jan. 1967 at the Buena Park Fire Dept. recruit academy training. We not only worked togeather on the job, but helped each other on our days off. Pat being a "certified" plumber and me the "certified" go for for Pat left me working in the crawl space or in the attic, while mr. Pat handled the rest. We we're always there for each other and I will miss him very much. Take care buddy and I will see you in the future. Take care, Danny
