So many good memories: Pat tap-dancing at school plays; his puppet shows at a local department store - I especially remember "The Little Match Girl"; his wonderful pastel art; his photography (his darkroom was in the basement); his letters to each of us when he was in the Navy stationed in Pensacola, FL; taking me for rides on the handlebars of his maroon bike (I was really small); spending time in the summer at Pat & Jane's home in Mountain Lake, NJ - I remember walking around the lake with Pat, Jr and Ricky, we were so tired that I carried Ricky toward the end of our walk; the wonderful picnics with the best potato salad; Jane & Pat's fantastic cookies (I especially loved Jane's delicious walnut and poppy seed Kifli's); and, so much more. More recently, Pat & I would talk for hours about everything - politics, world affairs, movies, health, cooking, old times, and so much more. I will dearly miss my brother. Pat may you rest in peace. I know you're looking down on us from heaven. Love you so much, Your sister, Maria
