Patrick was an avid reader and was blessed with an amazing memory. Preceded in death by his father, Col. (Ret.) Paul E. Donnelly, he is survived by his mother, Betsy Donnelly; his sisters, Marian Shadrick, Sheila Harrington, and Paula Dooley, brothers in law, and five nieces and nephews. The family wishes to thank his friends Robin Boldt and Steve Goodson for the friendship they provided these past difficult days.
