On what should have been a day of celebration, our family experienced an unimaginable loss.

Our family is heartbroken as we try to come to terms with the unexpected passing of Patrick Allen Gore, 53.

On March 19th, his son Austin called to check on him and see if he was still coming to his grandson’s 4th birthday party. During that call, Patrick shared that he wasn’t feeling well. None of us could have imagined that would be one of their last conversations.

We went on with the day, celebrating our little boy and trying to make his birthday special. But later that night, Patrick was found and had sadly passed away.

Now, March 19th will forever hold two meanings for our family—a birthday and the day we lost someone we love so deeply.

Patrick leaves behind two children in their 20s and two grandchildren who meant the world to him. This loss has been incredibly devastating, not only because of how much he was loved, but because it was so sudden and unexpected.

He also experienced deep loss in his own life, having lost his mother, father, and sister. Through those difficult times, he stepped up and made sure each of them was laid to rest properly, giving them the kind of goodbyes they deserved.

Now, it’s our turn to do that for him.

Unfortunately, Patrick did not have life insurance, and our family is now facing the financial burden of funeral expenses. His children want to honor him the same way he honored his family—to give him one last bang… one hell of a goodbye.

We are asking for any support during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation, share, and prayer means more than we can ever express.

Patrick was strong-willed, outspoken, and lived life on his own terms. He was the kind of man you didn’t forget, and the love he had for his family ran deep.

Thank you for helping us honor his life and give him the send-off he truly deserves.

Personal donations are accepted by both his sons via cashapp.
