First time I met you and Pam through Brad, he was so happy to introduce me to you both. You treated him like another son, you were like his 2nd Parents. Every birthday you would fill up his lolly jar didnt matter what age he was.( being an adult lol)When I was in labour I rung you and you dropped everything to go look for him in the bush at work. So it made sense that when we had Jordan we had to name part of him after you (patric) which he was always JP to you. You will always be in our hearts and Jordan will always know that he was named after an amazing caring man. Rest easy Paddy now you are with Pam xx

Uncle Paddy, I will miss playing HORSE on our various road trips, and the Rummikub tournaments where each turn took 10 minutes to execute (I maintain this was permitted by the rules). Thank you for letting me set off fireworks in the backyard, and more recently for lobbying for me to acquire the air conditioner - you always had a keen sense of justice and I will miss your support (see attached). I hope wherever you are that Auntie Pam is there, as well as plenty of deer. Rest easy,

Still cant believe u have gone. Thanks for all the great memories, you were a big part of our lives. When i was little u would ring me up every year to make a bet on Bathurst. I loved holdens and you loved “fords” which i found out years later u supported holdens 🤦🏼‍♀️. Thanks for letting me tag along on some fishing trips and duck shooting trips when i was younger u were like uncle to us if not the best uncle ive had. You wore jandles 24/7 didn’t matter if it was hot,cold, raining or frosty u hand jandles on until that one time you turned up to nikki’s 21st with a flash pair of shoes on I couldn’t believe my eyes it was Highlight of the night🤣. I know u will be with pam now and out of pain. We love u sooo much paddy and our family is really going to miss you especially Mum and Dad ❤️❤️❤️

Uncle paddy. Thank you for the tigers under the deck, the water fights and a real Christmas tree every year. Growing up with you and Aunty Pam in my life was a true gift Xx

Dear Paddy You have to have been one of the kindest and generous people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Although we will miss you terribly I know you will be so happy to be with Pam again. Your grandchildren will never forget you as you and Pam showered them with so much love and made awesome memories together . I promise to take good care of them for you. Matt is like a son to me and thanks to you both you raised him to be a decent and kind person. A perfect match for my daughter. I also promise to take care of him for you both. Bye Paddy I will miss seeing you zooming along the board walk and stopping in for a coffee . 😥

Paddy, I look back fondly at the time we spent working together in the forest. Your endearing nick name you used for me, Junior! still hangs in the back of my mind. You made me laugh, and still do when I think back to when you would throw a map on my desk wanting something from engineering. I would always ask "when do you need this done by?" to which you would always reply "two weeks". The way you treated others is a testament to the type of person you are. May God welcome you. Rest in peace.

Thank you for welcoming me into the family unconditionally Uncle Paddy. I am going to miss you telling Allan to tidy up when he was being cheeky… Hey Uncle Paddy, it’s your number 1 nephew lol. Cheers for being there for me all these years. I am going to miss our talks about b.s with a flat white. Cheers also for giving me my flat white addiction. I will always have memories of building the benches in my man caves with you, while the girls went shopping. Talking more than building. Measure three times, cut once. I am going to really miss the mean yarns, and being able to talk to you about anything.

Thanks for all the memories Paddy. The multiple laughs we had in our corner of the old office to your sayings that always cracked me up. Telling foreman to get something sorted “ASP”, or if you didn’t agree with a someone telling them to “tidy up”. The drives in the forest when I first started when I would be thrown forward against the seatbelt as you had stopped in a hurry as you had seen some deer sign and had to back up and investigate it further. Always looking out for me and checking in when you had so much of your own stuff going on. I will never forget ya. Rest easy with Pam. Love ya xx

What a huge loss known you since I was a kid so over 50 years you were a huge part of our parents life and ours from screaming at you in the back of the mini to welcoming you into our home and my families life thankyou for being a great friend to mum and dad really the brother from another mother for dad love you safe journey to Pam xx

Paddy..what can I say you made a huge impact on my life and your passing is a bitter pill to swallow. I promise to make sure that Matt and the kids will always be loved and cherished just as you and Pam always did. I am so hapoy you and Pam are together again. Pip will be spoilt and loved on as she always has been as well.

Paddy me ol' mate, you were truly one of life's good buggers! You and Pam were the loveliest couple that anyone could ever meet. Your enthusiasm and positivity were infectious, and we are all better people for having known you. I'll miss your animated story telling and all of the tall tales shared on our frequent forest missions. So long Mr Paddy, you will be missed. Pman.
