He was a member of the Church of the Good Shepherd and a graduate of McCallie School Class of 2021. Patrick loved to ride bikes and motorcycles.

He had an infectious personality and smile that won hearts and friendships. He enjoyed drawing pictures of his family, friends, girlfriends, and pets. His Great Dane, Diesel was not only his pet, but also his constant companion and emotional support dog. Patrick was a connoisseur of fried shrimp po'boys, Haribo gummy bears, and Shirley Temples with no ice. He lived his life wide open with little to no fear always looking for the next great adventure.

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Eddie Allen Armour and cousin, Zachary Michael Frost.
