Maynard Brandon wrote a sympathy message

“Pat was the CO of the reserve unit I joined way back when, later a colleague at First Chicago and a groomsman in my wedding, and always a friend. He was a dedicated public servant as both a military officer and an elected public official - a gentleman and a scholar. Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine. Et lux perpetua luceat eis. Fidelium animae, per misericordiam Dei, requiescant in pace. ~Amen~”
