Patrick's professional journey began at Grider Electric in Stockton, California, during the early 70s. His passion and dedication to his craft led him to earn his Electrical License and work for Eavenson Construction and Eavenson Electric until 2000. His work was more than just a career; it was a testament to his perseverance and commitment. Outside of work, Patrick was an avid water skier and diver, finding joy and tranquility on the water. He cherished the annual family vacations to Lake Tahoe, where he could often be found golfing daily with "the boys" and enjoying a few beers.

And don't forget Monday Morning Coffee with the family, an event he rarely missed. Patrick's life was a testament to the power of love, family, and friendship. His kind heart, adventurous spirit, and unwavering dedication to those he loved will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

His family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has offered their support and condolences during this difficult time.
