Dearest Mcguiggan Family, I was so sorry to hear about Pat. My son Michael just told me that he acquired his love of race cars because of him. He wishes that he could have told him so. I do as well. When I was living on Pensacola, Pat always said hello. He never just passed you by. My heartfelt condolences to all of you during this difficult time.
