He entered Basic Training with Company C, 1st Armored Rifle Battalion, 50th Infantry at Fort Hood, TX where he also attended Advance Training at 3rd Corps Academy. Oversees duty found him assigned to Combat Command C, 4th Armored Division, Crailsheim, Germany. He was honorably discharged on September 1, 1960, at the rank of Specialist 5th Class.
In civilian life Pat was very active with Children’s Ministry at his church where he is well known as the famous “Mr. C”.
Pat is survived by his wife, (Terry), and two children, (Tina 54, and Leo 50). He also has five grandchildren who range in ages from 22-32 years old.
