An accomplished athlete, artist, and overall fixer of things, Patrick excelled at virtually everything he did.

Perhaps most of all, Patrick enjoyed cheering on his beloved Georgia Bulldogs and Atlanta Braves.
Later in life, Patrick became a member of the Acworth Masonic Lodge #176. He was very proud of his affiliation with this esteemed organization.
