Patrick was baptized November 12, 1978 and his godparents were Dr. Patrick Hughes and Mrs. Yvonne Brazill.
His mother's first memory of Patrick "Pat's head was a horrible shape. It was shaped like a banana. One side was depressed and made him look very odd, but we loved him. He was healthy, wonderful and all ours. He loved to play peek-a-boo and chase me, loved to dance by jumping up and down, stops whatever he is doing to keep time with music and loves patty-cake. His playmates are his brother Joe and all his brothers and sisters, but Kelly is his special friend after mamma."
