2024 5K Walk/Run Event

Saturday, June 1, 2024 at 9:15 am

Throughout his life, Patrick brought a smile and warmth to everyone around him. He spent his childhood devoting himself to family, friends, and sports. From baseball to football to soccer, he played them all to exhaustion. However, he found his true passion in playing baseball while sporting the number five on his jersey in honor of his favorite player Johnny Bench. It is during these years that we were so fortunate to see Patrick grow and prosper in every way possible.


The Event Was a Huge Success!
