Biographical Comments
Patrick was an amazing husband, father, brother, son, fire fighter and friend.
From a small boy he was destined to become a fire fighter following in his father's footsteps and hoped to see his youngest son Samuel do the same. Patrick proudly served the Surrey fire Department for 31.5 years and made it clear that it wasn't just a job it was "who he was" - a fire fighter! His fellow fire fighter's will fondly remember Patisims for a long, long time!
