I´m so very, very sorry to hear of my cousin Patrick´s passing. Our Dad´s were brothers. We were, along with Michael and Colleen together a lot when we were little. But sadly lost touch as teenagers.
I´m sending Gods love and comfort to his Mom Ronnie and siblings. Along with his wife and daughter.
I´m so sad to see that Michael had passed away in May. I´m so sorry that we hadn´t stayed connected. May you all feel the comfort and peace of God throughout your mourning. Sincerely, Kelly

Pat and I worked together on many projects throughout the years at Victaulic. He was always a pleasure to work with - so bright and dedicated to the job but also so much fun to chat with and an all- around good guy. I will miss our interactions but will always have the good memories of all the laughs we shared. My sincerest condolences to the family.
