Reflections for Patrol Officer Patrick Michael Righi-Barnard

I know we didn’t know each other long, but what I did know is that you were such a great guy. Your mom works tirelessly to keep your memory alive and has done so much good in this world- through all of her grief. I cannot believe it’s been 20 years

Patrick, just letting you know how much I miss you and that smile. Every time I turn on a Notre dame football game I can't think of how much we loved watching them. I miss you son.

To my brother from another mother you will always be missed not just by me and my family but by everyone who had the privilege of meeting you and working with you. Even after 15 years when I think about us playing jokes on each other sometimes it makes laugh so hard it's like it just happened other times it brings tears to my eyes. Well I guess what I want to say is you Patrick are deeply missed

Hi Pat! I had a dream 3 days ago and you were in it. You were hanging out with my husband and our girls. I woke up and a bit later while having coffee, my husband said, Christina look outside at that cardinal on our tree. It was SO red and close to my window.. in fact, It felt like it was inside the house it was so close. Then the next night, I had my tv screen saver on and Always on my mind can on! You loved that song. Then the next morning, I was ordering winter boots for my girls and I typed in the zip code for in store pick up.... not realizing I typed in error.... the destination was Tremont ( not Peoria) bit still. Thanks for hanging out. Miss you my friend!
