Remembering Pat as that friendly smiling good natured guy with the beautiful singing voice who gave so much pleasure to those who performed with him on stage and watched him in the audience at Hamilton Operatic for so many years. It was an honour to know him. Rest in Peace Pat.

My old mate Pat,

I first met you in my early Marist days in the mid 1970's. I was always drawn to you because of your ready smile, hearty and genuine humour and particularly, your love of life in general. As I got to know you and your family better, you were always an inspiration to me Pat with your obvious love of family, Marist Rugby and life in general. You always were a man to be looked up to, thank you for being in my life Pat, I will never forget you. Rest in peace my friend.
