I especially remember Bishop Patrick's many holidays with his life long friend Fr Leo Wright former PP of Finley NSW and his many days spent fishing along the Murray River at Tocumwal and its environs. He was a very gentle man, of deep faith and a man of great pastoral care and ability. As he ordained me to the diaconate in St Francis Church Melbourne, Bishop Patrick has had a very special place in my thoughts and a lasting friendship with myself and the Malone Family. I particularly remember his deep empathy given to my non-catholic sister-in-law and my brother at a most difficult time of the birth of a niece, then and a nephew who were both born blind. I believe he kept their pictures beside his bedside table and prayed for that family every day. he will be mourned by a great many people and his family as a man of the people and a great son of the Church. May he rest in peace! And rise in Glory! - Fr Graeme Malone SSS - Chaplain Mary MacKillop Place, North Sydney.
