To the family, I´m so sorry to hear of the passing of Patrick, haven´t spoken to him in a couple of years referred a friend of mine to when she said that he hadn´t returned her call prompted me to call the office. When I read the news my heart broke...he represented me a couple times and checked on me every so often just to say hello. May god bless and keep your family.

I loved working with him at Steiner Segal & Muller before he became a partner. I loved our trips to the casino in Atlantic City at 3 p.m. on Thursdays. I loved meeting your parents. I loved going to dinner after work since we lived not far from each other. I loved his smile. My mom got to meet his parents sitting on the front porch of his Columbia home. We were sightseeing and decided to stop by. He gave us a tour of the home. Mom and I were recently having dinner at Minella's and who was eating dinner but Patrick. We talked about old times and new times and his cancer diagnosis. I am a non-hodgkin's lymphoma survivor so I know what he was going through. We kept in touch with holiday cards and birthday cards. He will be forever be in my heart. The good ones go so early. I know you will be up there helping people. Love your friend always, Susan

I was Patrick's legal secretary for three years when I worked for Steiner Segal & Muller before he became a partner. I met his parents at Ocean City, NJ where we walked the boards and played miniature golf. Patrick would take me to Caesar's Atlantic City on Thursdays in the afternoon skipping out work pretty much monthly. My mom met his parents sitting on the front porch of their Columbia home. We would go to dinner after work once a month. My mom and I were at Minella's Diner last fall for dinner and who did we see eating dinner but Patrick. We talked about old times and his cancer diagnosis and upcoming chemo treatment. I am a non-hodgkins lymphoma survivor so I know what he would have gone through. We corresponded with holiday and birthday cards. Patrick you will be forever in my heart. I know you are helping people in heaven. Love your friend, Susan

I am so saddened to hear of Patrick´s passing.. He was as fine a man as I have ever met.
He was a brilliant attorney.
And, he cared about people.
He was honest, decent and hardworking.
I will miss this very special human being.

My dear friend Patrick Donan was a man of great faith, honesty, and generosity. He had a beautiful smile that he gave to everyone. Anyone he met would be drawn towards him. He was my constant champion and friend since he worked with me 33 years ago. Patrick loved his family and extended family and his friends so much. God bless you Patrick until we meet again. All my love Pat.

beautiful smile that he gave to everyone

I will always remember Patrick for his unfailing good humor and kindness even towards his courtroom adversaries. We shared a distaste for typing and I will never forget Patrick revealing that he drafted all of his briefs in longhand while he was driving to and from court, a habit that I consistently tried to discourage. He took it in his stride and seemed to enjoy his work and his life. May God rest his soul.
