Rest In Peace Patrick Reddy
August 3, 1988 - January 8, 2007
In our hearts forever. 
Gone, but never forgotten.
You are greatly missed, and always will be.

“Patrick had the uncanny ability to annoy every teacher and student in the school and make every one of us laugh all in the same day,” Newhall said. “It’s usually one or the other. He was definitely one of the most colorful kids we’ve ever had.” -J. Newhall

"Life without pain is unendurable; to avoid pain is to avoid life." -K. Reddy

I'll keep this short...

Pat, I never go the chance to know you personally. If someone ever mentioned my name around you, you probably would have no idea who I was. But regardless, I am going to miss you. It still all seems unreal. I will never see you or hear your voice in the halls of SMH... or in the gym. You were a great person, and you're missed by so many. You will always be missed. Nobody will ever forget you. So many people love you... you made a huge impact on so many people's lives. It was so weird seeing so many people grieve over someone who always made people laugh. I am never going to forget this past week... it was tough for everyone, especially your family and friends.
Your life was taken away far too quickly. It's not fair, and it's such a tragedy. Nobody thought this could ever happen, but it did. You're in a better place now, looking down on everyone, especially your family I'm sure. I hope they get to see you again someday. I can't even imagine the pain they are feeling right now. I may not know your family, but I know they love you and miss you more and more every second. 
I am so lucky to have met you and known you for such a long time. Like I said before, I may not have really known you, but I will always miss you and never forget you. I'll never forget your face. I hope you still have that smile on your face in Heaven. You have touched every person you've ever come in contact with. We miss you <3.

Rest In Peace, Pat.
#88 Forever. "May you always be skating along the clouds."

Love Melanie <3
