Patrick loves to swim and exercise and do things outside. When he’s not building puzzles or watching the Princess Bride movie, he is helping around the house any way he can including gardening, baking and cooking.
Patrick loves to say the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet every day and, as his close buddy Father Chris can attest, he is a very loud and enthusiastic participant at Mass! Patrick has met so many new friends at Brother André’s and hopes to meet many more in the future!
