Patrick was a very caring and giving individual to his family and friends. He enjoyed waking up early on the weekends and heading out with his friends to the duck lease. Patrick lived every day to the fullest and enjoyed spending time with his friends. He was also known as the “life of the party”. Patrick loved playing soccer and played for 13 years. He acquired a love for tailgating with the “Oiler Army” at Pearland High School. Patrick would even call his aunt to ask her help for recipes. This love of tailgating and grilling extended to his time at Texas A&M, where he could always be found cooking with his friends. He enjoyed spending time with his dog, Mollie on duck hunts and giving her kolaches as treats after every hunt. Patrick shared Paw-Paw’s work ethic and his love of life. He loved the great outdoors and loved to fish and hunt. Patrick will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved him and his spirit will live on in their hearts forever.
