Connor, 

I can't accept this, I know you have to still be out there. I'm so sorry if I'm mistaken, but I can't believe this. I've been wanting to write this for so long ...  Where are you, I can't accept this, I highly apologize to your Family ... I just believe you're still here... 

Love or hate me, 

Amanda Jo Ford (Ritter)

Connor and I had been great friends since we were 16. He is responsible for introducing me to a truly social life. He took me under his wing and helped introduce me to many of the people I still know today. He also was instrumental in helping me turn my life around after I started making mistakes. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is one of the main reasons why I have so many of the things I have in my life today. I will miss him. I still have the urge to call him sometimes when something exciting or funny happens in my life. Will miss you brother.

Connor and I met in Mrs. Pennington's kindergarten class when we were 5 years old. We were friends immediately and through all 12 grades we laughed, played video games and ate candy. We usually laughed so hard our stomachs hurt. I remember sleep-overs, inner tubing trips at the lake and riding bikes around the neighborhood all day. We even got into trouble together more times than I can remember. Connor was a true friend. He was nice to everyone and I will miss him always.

Mary Beth and Pat- I just learned of your loss. I'm so sorry.

I am so shocked by this and I am so sorry for your loss. I met Connor when I was around 14 years old. He was always a good and reliable friend. We came in and out of each other's lives for the next 12 years and every time we would meet back up it was as if we started right where we left off. He was a great friend with a huge heart! When I was stuck in bed after a knee surgery he came all the way from Dallas to Flower Mound to bring me my favorite cupcakes. He always did little thoughtful gestures like that.  I had just been thinking about what he might be up to these days. I am so shocked and saddened by this. I wish I would have reached out when I was thinking about him a few weeks ago. I hope he knows how much I appreciated his years of friendship. He will always be remembered.

Connor was a student of mine at Highland Park High and Brookhaven College. He was a fine young man and brother to Jeff Patman, my son Paul's good friend I watched them both grow up in school and in University Park.

He will be greatly missed. From the other messages I can tell everyone thought of him as I did. This caring lovely person will be missed by us all.

I would like to start off saying, I am very sorry for your loss and he will be greatly missed. I had the pleasure to get to know him as a good friend. He was always willing to go the extra mile to help anyone out. He often told me that I felt like a brother to him, I felt he was more of a brother to me than my own brothers. We will miss him greatly. Our prayers go out to you all.

I love you. Our family will not be the same w/out you. Not looking forward to you not being part of our lives. I love you Connor. I know Grandma ' Pappa welcomed you w/open arms. Until I see you again cousin! Love forever!

He was one of the sweetest and kindest people I know. Always thoughtful and warm hearted. He will be greatly missed.

I have had the honor of knowing Connor for the past eight years. He was a great person and I will miss him so much. We spent many evenings playing poker and hanging out with friends. Connor was never hesitant to go all in and put his chips on the line, and that's how he lived his life--all in, full of energy, passion, and intensity. He was a loyal friend and he always offered kind words of encouragement whenever I was feeling down. He also had a hilarious sense of humor and kept the laughs coming when he was around. I am very sorry for your loss and I will forever cherish the fond memories I have of him.

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Connor, and he will be greatly missed. He was sweet, considerate, and kind.  His family and friends are in my prayers.

I had the blessing of working with Connor even though it was remotely and he was the sweetest young man I have ever met.  He is missed more than words can express.  I am deeply sorry for your loss

To the Patman Family and Friends,

My prayers and thoughts are with you during difficult times like this. Words can't not express the lost and hurt that you feel. May the words of family and friends bring comfort and support. 

Your friend and former co-worker,
Angela J. (CIGNA Group Insurance)

Patman family, 
I am so sorry for your loss 
I had the greatest honor to work with Connor. He is incredibly smart, easy going and kind hearted and friendly. 
He shared with us not only friendship but his love for a Panini Strawberry cake. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
