We have known Pat for 31years and we have enjoyed many hours of interesting conversations. Pat had a hearty laugh and liked to tell a good joke. A special gleam could be seen in his Irish eyes whenever he talked about his Ann or his Boys and family. We known you'll keep the grass in heaven green and that the Lord will probably put you in charge of all the pets. We miss and love you.

We lived across the street from the Murphy's as everyone was growing up. Pat would always come over when he saw my Dad outside and they would "talk cars". My Dad always got a kick out of him. They are both in heaven now, resuming their discussions! RIP, Pat.

It was too soon for Pat to leave us. He told some great storys about his love for his cars which was something I could relate to.

He was very devoted to his grand children and loved being around them. He was also a great brother-in law and family man. I am going to miss him a lot.

Pat, say hello to your father John for me.
