We are asking to support his daughter's future

Our 3 has become 2; we say goodbye to Patrick, the firstborn of our family of three siblings.

He carried the mantle of the eldest with a steadfast spirit and a caring heart. While our world feels quieter without him, we hold onto the vibrant memories of his life.

His proudest role was being a father to his cherished daughter, Alexis. Everything he did was rooted in his deep love for her, and she is a beautiful testament to the man he was.

To his nephews, Charlie and Lucas, he was their best friend and gaming buddy. Every time you smile remembering an inside joke, or whenever you pick up a game controller, know that his love and his spirit of fun are still right there with you.

To us, his siblings, he was a constant presence, a source of shared history and irreplaceable memories. We will carry his memory forward in our hearts, reflecting on the bond that connected us.

We are going to miss that huge, magnetic energy he brought everywhere he went. Life will be a little quieter now, but our memories of him will always be loud and full of joy.

Let's keep the good times rolling in his honor.
