Patrick had a passion for fishing and traveling. Oldies always brought a smile to his face. Patrick was always happy to be “stuck” with the girls, taking them to the casino, the beach, or just out for a ride to anywhere. Patrick had a love for food, and he would try things at every restaurant he could. He loved his Chi Chi’s pizza and any taco truck he could find.
