It is hard to put into words what Patrick meant to his family and friends. Patrick displayed his deep love for his wife, children, and family through intentionality and spontaneity.
At young age Patrick developed a passion for the game of golf from time spent with his late grandfather, Bert McGriff. From toddler to adult, you could always find him on the golf course.
Patrick embraced an idealistic and entrepreneur spirit. He was always thinking out of the box and constantly pursing his dreams and ambitions. From the creation of Blackwolfe Insurance Group, Blackwolfe Athletica, 4 Arrows Fitness and his partnership in Around the Clock Doc, he became an inspiration and backbone to the community he loved.
Patrick’s Celebration of Life Service will be held, Saturday, March 5th at Desperation Church. The family will be greeting friends from 9:00 am-11:00 am with the service starting at 11:00.
