I awoke this morning to 3 messages on my Cell phone. I called Daphne and she informed me that her brother Patrick had been killed in a motor bike accident a few hours ago. This is what we looked like in 1972. We have shared a great deal together over the last 35 years and one of our passions were motorbikes. He bought his first bike from me in 1978. A blue Honda 750cc CBK. The photo of it was taken in the back yard of his parents house. When I returned from England I didn't have a car he lent me his bike a Red 250cc which was my only transport. It was on this bike that he had a head on collision not far from the school we attended together.
Patrick was a friendly man who often went out of his way to help others sometimes going short of things himself. Patrick, a true "Bluffite" survived Iraq and died at "home". Long Live Patrick.
