My deepest condolences to the Watanabe family. I worked with Pat at Long Lane. He was always enjoyable to work & talk with during the course of the shift. I hope you may take comfort in the good memories you had & as time goes on, keep these thoughts of him as a special part of his life. God bless.

Rest in peace Patrick. My best friend when we were little kids living at McKenna drive. Even though it's been many years since we spoke, I still have a lot of great memories of my youth. I used to go over to his house almost every morning before school and hang out while eating breakfast. I remember Maria and Gary taking us to see Kiss in concert in, my first rock concert. I really wished I kept in touch with Pat. So sorry Maria for your loss. Love,

Baseball and soccer won't be the same without Pat - seeing his smiling prideful face, hearing his voice as he encourages Kobe from his seat beyond the fence, and sharing good times...
We will deeply miss our friend, Pat, and know that he lives on in each of you.
Prayers of strength, peace and comfort...

so many great memories packed into a short time most people thought we were brothers !!!! "The Oklahoma Trip" Mr. Andy shared with you left out some obstacles there's just one little obstacle I'd like to share with you. it took Pat a few deep breaths between the laughing to tell me about the highway patrol chasing them for 10 miles the fact that they didn't know and Pat decided they should stop and take a picture in front of a sign that said welcome to Cuba Missouri which also allowed them to stay and visit Cuba for a day before they made it to me in Oklahoma....and Pats thoughts were he didn't think Andy's dads fiero went that fast..... was still a great memorable visit......so many stories so many laughs
Love you
RIP PATRICK WATANABE

Watanabe Family, I am so saddened to hear of your loss.
Though we haven't spoken as much in recent years I considered Patrick to be like a brother. He was one of my best friends as a teenager...and will always be considered one of my favorite people...the bond forged was that genuine. The few times I've been to Connecticut as an adult, we laughed at how the rapport was so immediate...there was no warming up, we jumped into conversation as though we had been together the day before. I know he was like that with a lot of people....Wonton had that gift.

One highlight that comes to mind was a spontaneous road trip to Oklahoma...I said "Pat, what do you want to do tonight?". He said "We should visit Dean in Oklahoma.".....I said "That's so ridiculous....we should do it.". And within moments we had scrabbled together a few hundred dollars, loaded up my dad's car and were rolling west to Stillwater. The short of it is....there were some obstacles....but we made it...to Broken Arrow Oklahoma, were Dean met us. It wasn't the most responsible thing we ever did....but we reveled in the adventure of it.
The last time I saw Patrick he told me how much he loved his wife and being a Dad. I remember thinking 'man that's nice'. I was happy for him.
I am saddened that I won't see my buddy anytime soon, but appreciative...to have had the time with him. What a blessing he was. Patrick Sloane Watanabe..... His wonderful spirit will continue to be among us... and watching over us....RIP 44...love you brother!

D, Kobe, Maya and family;
Patrick was such a dear friend to so many with such a kind heart and open ear. No conversation was too small for him to listen... he always cared. He lit up when talking about each of you; that is part of what made him such a special person.

May wonderful memories be in your hearts. My prayers and thoughts are with each of you and Patrick now.

I am saddened to read of Patrick's passing. I never met him, but I have fond memories of his grandfather Stanley.... If Patrick was half the man his grandfather was, then indeed he was a great man!
May Patrick's heavenly light shine brightly upon his family, loved ones and friends.
God bless...

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Patrick. I have vivid memories of him in high school. We were in the same art class together. He was an amazing artist and he made these incredible paintings of Motley Crue! They were spot on. He was a sweet guy and very nice to a very shy girl. I'm so sorry for his passing. He will be remembered for a very long time.
