Getting to Know Patrick

What person, living or deceased, would you most like to meet?
John Lennon – Not only was he a prolific songwriter and musician, but a sincere humanitarian whose message of peace transcended all languages and boundaries.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Spending time relaxing with family and good friends is the “happiness” part, and all of us being together at Havasu Falls in the middle of the Grand Canyon makes it “perfect”. Arguably the most beautiful place I’ve ever been.

My wife keeps a selection of motivational sayings on the window sill in our kitchen.  My favorite one currently is:

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does. – William James
