My apologies, I am just seeing this obituary now December 29, 2014 and I am so sorry for your loss. Patrick dedicated a great many years to the New Flyer Team and I was grateful to have worked with Patrick. I was also there when Patrick chose another path to move onto Arne's and he was feeling confident that this was a step in the right direction for his career.
