I miss Pat! He would come in everyday to Garcia’s to keep me company. He would always grab us icecream and cookies (he loved his coffee and sweets), and he would sing and tell me stories about his life. A wonderful, full, fun life he had. He told me about all of his family, I felt as if I got to meet everyone through his stories. He told me all about yhe job’s he had held and the people he had met. He truly loved his wife, he talked about her frequently, and he always made it back home to have dinner with Rompy. I regret never taking a picture with him, but I will never forget his peculiar sense of style. His funky socks and unlimited supply of Jerseys. I am glad I was surrounded by his wonderful soul.
