My thoughts and prayers are with Doris and the family. Always enjoyed seeing Pat in the grocery store shopping. Did not know he had all those years at Winn-Dixie. Also enjoyed visiting with him at exercise. He will truly be missed in Huntley Hills. |  | Bill Durham | Apr 17 2018 07:16 am | Prayers and condolences from here. Sad to learn of Pat's passing. The childhood memories just came flooding back. |  | Suellen D'Angelo and Family | Apr 16 2018 09:47 pm |
We miss your smile,
Your joking ways,
We miss the things
You used to say
And when old times
We do recall,
It's then we miss you
Most of all.
