Pat attended school in Drumheller from grade one to nine then moved to Brooks to finish his high school. During his years in Drumheller he attended Cub Scouts, became an excellent swimmer, played Little League Baseball, soccer and hockey. Pat had legions of friends and family and leaves to mourn his passing his beloved son Jesse; his mom Caryl; brother Pete (Cindi); his sisters Debbie (Brian) Lanigan and Christine; nephews Logan and Dylan; nieces Vanissa, Alyia and Stephanie; maternal grandmother Ida Haahr; and uncle Jerry Haahr (Virginia); and several cousins. Special mention goes to his devoted companion of eight years, Carrie Rowe, and all of her family who all loved Pat dearly. Pat was predeceased by his father Peter in 2002 and his uncle Jack Haahr in 2001. A celebration of Pat's love and life will be held in the Rosedale Hall on Thursday, May 4 at 2:00 PM. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to S.T.A.R.S. Ambulance and/or the Canadian Paraplegic Association.
