Suzana, I can't imagine what you are going through. I am so so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know I only met Patrick once or twice but I have a wonderful memory of him at about age 5 or 6 singing "Born in the USA" and playing the air guitar when I saw you and George over at Paula's apartment. I know that was a long time
ago. I don't know what else to say other than I am so sorry and I will be praying for you and your family. Love Carol

Wow---
I have no idea what to say!
.
Children are never suppose to pass before the parents huh?
.
I can't say that I know how you feel, not having kids of my own... but I do know about the loss of a family member (my father died when I was 30). There is no rhyme or reason and you may never understand why... but if there is something that I can do to make this time more bearable, please don't hesitate to call me at work.
.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Lori

I recently came back to Ohio to visit with my family. It was supposed to be a very happy day, until I got the worst news I think I've ever had. Josh, who lives across the street from me, came by and said, " Dude, Pat is dead." I was floored. I didn't even believe it. Even with Josh almost crying, I was like, " yea, right." Not Pat. Never could've been Pat. But then I found out he really was gone. He was my next door neighbor for.. God, 8 or 9 years. He was one of the first people I ever met when my Mom, sister and I moved to Hilliard. We hung out together so much, and did so many stupid things. But he was always such a good friend. It isn't like we talked about the stupid things, like girls, or sports and stuff. We just hung out. Listened to music. I remember helping D.J., Nick, and Pat record their first songs on a little recorder and a dubbed over Mariah Carey tape. :*)

I don't think there is much I can say to ease or assuage the pain of loosing such a bright soul. I don't think any parent should have to out live their child, and I don't think any friend should have to have a friend who touched them in so many ways... just get snatched out from under them. People say that we measure the worth and value of our lives through the suffering we endure during this stage of our existence. I think that is crazy talk. Rather, we are all the richer for having known Pat, and no amount of material wealth could ever add up to the joy, the love, and the pain at having known and lost him. If we tried to measure that against the suffering we all feel at his loss.. well, I'd rather not tread those waters. I don't want to look at his death to measure up the value and worth of my life. I look at HIS life, and measure myself against it. Will I ever be as happy as he looked when we jumped a train? Or will I ever get that smirk when we whoop on Moffet and his peeps in a 3 on 3 basketball game? (the answer to the last one is Yes, btw. We whooped on them. Pat had a nasty lay-up). Or how about those times when all we did was sit by the lake inside of a cement tube and chill, with all of us just talking crazy stuff.

But in the true spirit of knowing Pat,I'm not going to keep reminiscing. Instead, I'm going to end this with something I thought he would get a kick out of. In the true style, ya know?

" Life is a banquet, and some poor mother f*ckers are starving." Eat up people, and don't ever forget that guy down the street with the shaggy hair and the unbeatable grin. I know I wont.

With Love,
Jon Ashcraft

P.S. Rock on. :*)

I know it's been a long time since we talked, but it feels like yesterday that we last were watching the boys play soccer. My heart goes out to all of you. I have been sending Reiki (healing uncondional love) ever since Todd called Beth and I to tell us of Patrick leaving this Earth and his family. But what he left behind; the wonderful memories of his sparkling/mischievious eyes and smile and the light and love he was to all who met him is priceless.
I'm so happy I knew you all and shared his growing up years and our sideline friendship that I will always cherish. Be well my friend and God bless you all in the days ahead. You will be in my prayers and thoughts.
Blessings and Love DEB
PS. If you ever get to Sedona AZ please look me up!

We just would like for you to know that Pat was a special part of our lives. He had dinner with us, laughed with us and of course played guitars with the boys in our basement. You did a very good job in raising him. He was the most well mannered, respectful, loving and caring person that we have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He talked about God to my boys and even went to church with Joel about a month ago. We also believe he was a angel sent from God because he has touched so many lives. We loved him as one of our own. Take care and God Bless. You are in our prayers daily. If there is anything we can do please just call us. 527-8716
