I’m getting tired of people dying, army buddies, co-workers, friends and family. Now CP guys are resting in peace. Been a hard few years in this category.
Patteeu; always good for the last say in something, right? I wasn’t going to post anything more than a simple “RIP” type thing. And, sadly, I think I’ve confused him with one of the sauls I don’t get along with. I was looking through all the rep messages we’ve exchanged over the years, We got along a lot better than I remembered. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends, (rainman, good story), and from reading these posts there’s a few of you who thought pretty darn highly of him, even in disagreement. That’s pretty awesome. Reminds me of my favorite Frost poem; “ To laugh often and much; to win the respect of the intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friendsa to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that one life has breathed easier because you lived here. This is to have succeeded.” I say Rest In Peace, you have succeeded...... |

Thank you Rainman for the insight. That's truly an awesome lifelong friendship we should all be so lucky to have, even if it was fragmented.

Thanks for the info Rain Man, I had no idea you two were acquainted let alone that long.
One funny thing I remember about Pat was that he couldn’t watch YouTube videos on here until like 2010. He said he had dial up in the sticks where he lived. This is really bumming me out |

Sending good thoughts to all who knew him, it's tough to lose a friend too soon.
Always enjoyed reading his posts, whether I agreed or not, they were always well thought out. Enjoyed his "go-rounds" with the mods. RIP and Godspeed Gene/Patteeu. |

This sucks. We could all learn from Pat how to deal with those we disagree with. Pat had one of the best senses of humor. Whenever I’d post something I thought went over everyone’s head, I’d check and see a fresh rep from Pat. He was also very thoughtful and always remembered things that I’d briefly mentioned about myself and asked about how that was going. Gone but never forgotten.

Makes me feel a little jackass-ish for posting an awful gif of a guy waving bye in the other thread. I think he would have appreciated the humor of it though, given its near-board tradition.
RIP Patteeu. Condolences to those that had a personal relationship with him. Certainly an entertaining and intelligent fella. |
