Dad devoted his life to serving others. After retirement, he spent several weeks each year at a small village in Rwanda. Here, he worked tirelessly to build schools, churches, water filtrations, and most importantly, spread the gospel.

In lieu of flowers (Dad would just say, 'Why are you wasting money on flowers that are just going to die anyway? I'm already home!'), the family would be honored to accept donations to the church and school in Rwanda where Pat visited each year. All funds donated through this link will be used to support the ministry and school of Pastor "Ben" Mupenzi Benon in Rwanda - funded through Pat's friends at Friendship Baptist Church in Sykesville, MD.
