Awww...no prayers necessary for me, but thanks...I'll take all I can get.
I only wish I could have been closer to Pat, it was an honor to have known him and his passion for music was unmatched. Just found a video that the record company had made a while back trying to show the "people" at the labels that are behind the scenes bringing us all the music we love, and they had one for Pat. If you have the time, take a look...and if you never met him, this is one way to find out who he was and what he was all about...
Not sure which link will work here...

Also...the record company has released a disc to try and help Pat's family. 100% of the proceeds go into a fund to help pay for his little girls college when she gets there.
