Pat married the love of his life, Kathleen Bergeron, daughter of Arnold and Isaure Bergeron on August 10, 1958. Serving his country proudly, he was drafted into the United States Army. His career began as a boat captain and ended as a manager of a fleet of jack-up boats off the West Coast of Africa with Halliburton. With over 35 years of service to the marine industry, Pat’s work ethic and integrity carried over into his personal life. Throughout his life, Pat enjoyed designing and building things small and large from a toy box for his grandchild to a three bedroom camp down in Montegut. Pat loved spending time with his family and friends, fishing, hunting, boiling seafood, watching LSU and Saints football, dancing the jitterbug, and listening to classic country music. He will be greatly missed.
