Happy Birthday to Bob Patrick

World War II veteran Bob Patrick celebrated his 94th birthday in Dayton last week surrounded by the closest friends and family- COVID style, with a little flair. A parade of more than 20 vehicles, led by the Color Guard, drove by with signs, music, and plenty of waves, with a few fellow veterans even stopping to salute. Bob was presented with a Valor Quilt, pieced together by Linda Clarys. The patriotic quilt was created with appreciation and gratitude for Bob’s service. He entered the military in 1944, serving in the Philippines. His brother, Richard, served in the military as well. From everyone at The Times­—Happy Birthday, and thank you for your service, Bob!
