I met Patrick 3 short years ago. We had an instant connection as we shared similar interests and hobbies. Patrick helped me build my train setup in my basement and generously gave me a lawn mower when I was in need. He was a kind, gentle, and passionate man, whom I am glad to call my friend. Godspeed Patrick, now you are free to travel anywhere you would like to see. You will be missed.
Dearest Barb and Families:
So sorry to read the loss and sorrow of Pat.
My deepest condolences at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Doris Braekevelt
My deepest condolences. I got to know Pat when I was writing the book of BlueWater. Many times Pat and I would talk about his dad’s restaurant in BlueWater called ” Mike’s Restaurant “. He was so proud of it and often brought me menus and we would talk and laugh about the prices of the food in it. He was a true gentleman and I will miss going down memory lane with him. RIP Pat.
Pat was on our staff at 162 Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps Wallaceburg. Hard worker, great guy. Had just gotten caught up with him a few months ago. Condolences to everyone in his family. He will truly be missed.
