Ken has been friends with Pat since junior high school. I got to know him the last couple of years. Really a sweet guy. He would always say when we were leaving, “Drive Carefully.” Rest In Peace my friend.

A special thanks to Ken Howard and his wife Linda.You have been a God send to my wife and I. Pat you you said thatGod was not here or there but in our hearts. I believe that and I believe in you. Dad said I should use your lessons as mine and I did. About 10 years ago I wrote a song about you. Pat’s Song “This my sad song how I wasted my life away, life so darn hard I wanna run away. This my sad song how I wasted my life away.” Thankyou for the hunting and fishing trips . They were special to me then and still are. If it was not for you I would not have known my lab Heather who my family and I still love even today. God bless you Pat Love Tom
