<p>Father Pat was a dear friend</p> <p>I'm attaching some pics from our time in India. I know his memory will live strongly in the hearts of the people who he has touched through his kindness. </p> <p>He was our Assistant Parish Priest. I don't remember which year it was but it was the best time in our parish. He used to visit home and watch the football world cup matches with my dad. </p> <p>He told me he came to India by ship in 1958 and was ordained in July that same year. He had a brother who had Alzheimers and also a sister named Shiela. He gave me her contact number and asked to stay in touch when he left to Ireland in 2015. I wish I had called him just once. I had lost the phone number and never spoke to him after he left India. I wish I did. </p> <p>I thought of him many times since he left. I was also told that he did not remember much in the past couple of years. I wonder if he remembered me and my family. He was a kind person. </p> <p><span>I'm attaching some pics from our time in India.
