I knew Pat "PJ" in high school, and we both went into the Marine Corps after graduation. I ran into him at Quantico where our units were based. We'd swoop home on the weekends in his Smoky and the bandit car. We used to stop in Lebanon where his folks were living on the way back to base. His family always feed us and sent us on our way. He was funny, liked a laugh and good time. Those were happy times! We lost contact after the Marines, and I moved away. I am saddened to hear of his passing! May he rest in eternal peace, and may perpetual light shine upon you! My sincere condolences to his family and friends! He was a good guy! 🙏🇺🇲
