To Jean and family. Sending you our love, prayers and condolences at this sad time. We have been privileged to know and appreciate Pat for his faith, humanity and graciousness. Elizabeth especially appreciates Pat and Jean for their visits to Nancy and for his sense of humour and for his sweet tooth! You have fought the good fight Pat – rest in peace.
To Jean and Family, you are all in my thoughts and prayers. I often referred to Pat as the quiet man. One of the highlights of my visit home each year was meeting up with Pat and Jean part way between Dublin and Belfast. My favourite place was Carlingford for lunch. We had some great laughs and deep conversations on our walk around the town. I always noticed Pat’s shoes, someone once said you can tell a lot about the man by his shoes (not sure who said this) Harry enjoyed knowing Pat and talking to him at their meetings. Pat will be missed but we all have fond memories of him. He will be up in heaven debating with the best of them.

Just want to pass my condolences to all the family, at this sad time. Pat was the loveliest man, met him a couple of times at funerals of our granny & uncle Paul. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May Pat Rest in Peace
Dear Jean & the Mackle family,
Its not easy to express the significance and impact of Patrick’s life in our family life. I do not know my conversion would have been possible if it wasn’t for Patrick and Karen. Karen was my link to Patrick and Patrick was the straw that broke the camel’s back. He was my U turn. He fought a hard battle to prevent my Great Divorce from God. He is forever in my heart. I love him so.
Pls accept sincerest condolences from my husband Hans, our children, my mother, my brothers, Aya (a friend from Kazakhstan who attended our wedding) and Patricia (an Irish girl who never met Patrick but cried when found out about Patrick’s passing). With much love and much gratitude.
Dear Patrick pls pray for us! I promise to keep praying for you and Jean and the family.
So sorry to hear of the passing of Pat he’s my father Brian McCanns uncle had pleasure of meeting him and his wife at my granny Margaret’s home a few times May he rest in Peace a real gentleman godbless all the family xx
I am thinking of you all during this difficult time and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. May your dad Rest Jn Peace x
