Dad, if you can see this, I hope there is a heaven and you found your way there.  You suffered so much, and I hope you rest in peace and truly find/found peace in an afterlife, if there is one.

Please rest in peace Dad, know that you were loved and aren't forgotten.  I remember the times you visited me, you always visited me to let me know you still cared about me.  I truly hope you found peace inside at last, you were a wonderful person, Dad.

Blessings of the Divine for Patrick, his family, and especially his 7 children for whom he cared dearly. From many years ago, I recall that Pat was our paternal grandmother's favorite, as at age 3 or 4, he was so cute, talkative, and had a very expressive personality! May he rest eternally in happiness among his relatives and friends.

I first met Pat in June 2010 when he was responsible for Fluor for a software implementation that I performed at Savannah River.  Through his leadership the implementation was a success and this helped change the course of how Fluor performs cost management for decades to come.  It was through Pat that I joined Fluor.

Pat was a good friend, mentor, and colleague.  I always knew that I could expect keen insight into problems I encountered and we frequently discussed work issues.  We also discussed our families and he shared memories of his children.  He was a devoted father and frequently received calls from them when they needed help and guidance.

I was devastated to learn of his death.  Pat opened his office to me when I started regularly visiting Los Alamos over a year ago.  Pat was a strong leader and was respected by all of us who worked with him.

Pat will be missed by his friends from work but most by his family.  My prayers are for them to remember the best of their father.  He loved you deeply.  He is now with our Lord so you will see him again.

I'll start in our junior year, Pat transferred back to Vinton for the spring semester. I'm sitting in Geometry class and Pat comes walking through the door and sits beside me. He had taken Algebra II his sophomore year as I had and here 2 juniors sat. Well there went my "A"s in Geometry. As Mrs. Idleman put it if I would have not talked so much and listened to her I would have continued getting "A"s. Truthfully as small as Vinton was we did not have a class together until 7th grade PE. He did not like me much until the middle of the 7th grade. Don't know why its not important. In the 8th grade we had classes together including band and were friends. In the 9th grade we were 2 of 3 Freshman in a Speech Class of Junior and Senior malcontents. We had fun speaking out and criticizing upper class man  speeches. Our Senior year Pat was there for me when my father was killed in a traffic accident. We did not talk of it but he had a solid steady presence that I felt and helped me in a difficult time. For that I thank him and the family that raised him.  

Family,

Pat and I worked together and in talking with him and being around him I discovered that he was a Christian and loved his family. Among other things Pat was kind hearted, caring, and loved a good piece of Pecan Pie:) It's hard to except that my brother has moved on but my faith tells me he is with the Lord now. May the Lord be with you and give you strength to celebrate his life. Our prayers are with you family.

God Bless,

When I worked at LANL, Pat and I took our smoke breaks together every day. During those times, we talked about so many things but what generally predominated his conversation were his children. Goodness, he loves them so very much, even now, I’m sure of it. He shared with me his plans for taking them on road trips, where they’d go, his excitement anticipating their visits or his trips to visit them and, of course, how proud he was of all of them.

The last time I saw Pat was the morning of October 18, 2019. I remember it well. I asked him to give me a ride to the U-Haul place in Santa Fe so I could pick up a truck as I was moving to Los Angeles the next day. He surprised me by treating me to breakfast before dropping me off.  I remember sitting with him, sharing my excitement and nervousness embarking on the next chapter of my life. He was full of encouragement, support and confidence in me. Our last cigarette break was just after breakfast, standing outside his car before he dropped me off.

It can sometimes be difficult living in Los Alamos having no family or friends close by. I believe that’s what bound our friendship, being able to rely on each other for various things outside the office. Our time together stand out like bright shining moments for me and I’m deeply grateful for his friendship. His sincere kindness and generosity was such a comfort.  I’ll never be able to remember my 2 years in Los Alamos without thinking of him.

His passing is so utterly heartbreaking -- my sincerest condolences to his family and to all who truly knew him.

Pat, was my manager at the Lab, and upon my arrival at my new job he immediately made me feel welcomed.  I am deeply sadden by this loss as he was a fine man . One found memory I have was the time he made gumbo for the whole office. It was sooooo good he had everyone coming back for seconds! I didn't get to know Pat for that long but anyone who knew him knew he loved his kids. My prayers for peace and comfort for his family. 

Our team at Los Alamos National Laboratory had the great fortune of working with Pat during the past year and a half. He was a colleague of great skill and competence. He was also a fine man that  brought kindness and integrity to every interaction. Our Laboratory extends its deepest condolences to Pat's friends and family. 

Pat worked in my group and we are greatly saddened by his loss. He will be missed by us all and not soon forgotten.
