Pat married Nancy Lantto in 1979; they lived in Annandale, were blessed with 5 children, and were later divorced.

Pat lived a life filled with purpose and resilience. Having achieved 15 years of sobriety with Narcotics Anonymous, he exemplified the spirit of perseverance. He was known as a hardworking and dedicated man, driving buses, garbage trucks, dump trucks, cement mixers, and semi-trucks throughout his career. His craftsmanship emerged in his passion for woodworking, welding, and metal scraping, where he found joy in transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. Above all, Papa Pat loved his role as a grandfather.
