Donna and Family, Annette and I will always remember the good person and neighbor that Pat was. He was always there over the years to help assist us - first as new homeowners and through the years. Annette especially enjoyed when she called for assistance and he answered "FBI" or some other agency. In later years, after Pat retired, I really appreciated it when I was away and Annette was having trouble with something like starting the mower, that he was there to help. And there was that Irish sense of humor... Donna, I also think you and Pat did a fine job raising your children. They were always respectful to people in the neighborhood and helpful to Annette and I when a tree would blow down or when we needed help with the leaves. They say the measure of a man is the legacy he leaves behind. Pat - you touched many people and showed how to live life with dignity no matter what fate has in store for us. I only hope that we can do half as well. Our condolences to you and your Family. Ted, Annette and Family
