Pat you were a great man and friend someone I could always count on. We may not of known each other for that long but I miss you dropping by the house. Ever since I lost my little brother you have definitely been a brother to me. I just can't put into to words how much I miss you brother. Say hi to my brother Nick up there. And one day we will meet again. I love you brother more then you will ever know.
