Just want to let the family of Pat know how much he impacted the youth he came in contact with. My own impression of Pat was that he was always so cheerful and uplifting. My daughter, Katie posted this on Facebook concerning him: He will be missed dearly! He was always in a good mood and always encouraging us kids. I'll never forget the pin he made me with a katydid on it, because that is what he called me. I'll also never forget when he came in and made pizza with us. You were a great man, Mr. Gaia and we all have fond memories of you. Rest in peace, love Katydid
