Pat’s Point of View

Today is my birthday, but it’s been a less than happy day. This morning I attended the funeral for Clifford D’Souza, the father of my best friend.

I didn’t know Keith’s dad very well, I spoke to him only a few times over the years. But I know what kind of a man he was, because of the son he raised. Keith is an honest, generous, loyal and trustworthy friend, a real decent guy. I believe he got those qualities from his upbringing…he certainly didn’t get them from hanging around with people like me :)

Jenn and I, and some other close friends, went to the funeral to show support for our friend and his family. Our hearts go out to them in this difficult time and I hope they soon move beyond their grief and remember with loving reflection the good life their father and husband led.
