Thank you for the opportunity to attend the service from Winnipeg. It was a wonderful service and such a special tribute to an exceptional man. I was truly blessed to have had the opportunity to know him. His love for you Heidi and his boys was what lite up his life. In the days ahead may you find peace and comfort in all your wonderful memories. He will live on…forever loved and always remembered.
What a wonderful service and tribute to Pat. I send my biggest condolences to Heidi and her sweet boys. I am so very sorry for your loss. May you find peace in all your fondest memories. Hugs, Allison
I was so thankful to be able to watch the service from my office in California today. It was beautiful and touching and loved hearing your growing up stories Mike. So glad you have such a big great group of friends to help get you through this and such a nice big family. Love you guys.

Heidi, I think I only met you once, but Patrick talked about you every day as we swapped stories about our adventures with our first born boys. He was an amazing person. I know that you must see Patrick in the boys every day. May his light continue to shine in all of you. I wish your hearts peace. Hang on to the love and joy that he brought you.

Heidi - my heart breaks for you, your sons and your entire family. Patrick truly was an exceptional man who touched the lives of all of who knew him, more than his humble nature would allow him to imagine. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to attend the service virtually from Winnipeg...know that I was there in spirit and will continue to keep you and your precious sons in my thoughts. I pray you find strength in the love of family and friends who care deeply and grieve with you.
Patrick was so approachable and friendly at work - always making time to chat, answer a random question, offer some advice, or give some tips on mental health. He will be missed greatly. Sending love and condolences.
When I started as a co-op student at WD, I had to write a little blurb introducing myself to the department. There, I shared that I was in the process of learning Russian. A few months later when another co-op had to write a blurb introducing themselves, Patrick forwarded the introduction to me noting that I could probably practice my Russian with them. I never expected that the Director General of HR would read my introduction, let alone be reminded of it. I will always remember his kindness and amazing energy. I feel so privileged to have crossed paths with him. Sending love and support from Vancouver to Patrick's family and friends.
Heidi and family, what a beautiful eulogy that painted a wonderful picture of Pat. We send our condolences and send our love to you all during this difficult time and always. Praying for you all to hold each other up and that you feel Pat with you in all the ways that he loved you and taught you. Much love and support, Michelle (and Parker)
There are no words to describe how dearly Patrick will be missed. He touched the lives of everyone he knew and today my thoughts are with his friends, family, and coworkers. I wish I could have been there today in person. Sending love and thoughts during this time.
"The LORD makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him" (Psalm 37:23).
In the short period of time I worked with Patrick, I noticed how he was always in service to Him and others; that surely delighted the LORD. In every conversation with Patrick, I felt seen. He had a way of making me and our colleagues feel safe and important. What a gift it was to know him this past year.
Wishing each and everyone of you, love, peace and acceptance during this difficult time. May His grace embrace the Faulkner family and friends from this day forward.
Patrick was such a kind and helpful co-worker. He was always willing to offer advice and you always felt better after chatting with him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Fly away Patrick
May parts of your soul remain with your family
Feeling the vibration of you soul
So one day when the cloudy grief passes
Your love ones will radiate all the love you have nurtured them with during your passage on earth!
Amen
I'm sorry I could not be there today. I am sending my deepest condolences to Patrick's family, friends and colleagues. I hope that you find peace and comfort in the happy memories that you've shared with him.
There are truly no words that are near enough. My thoughts and prayers and love are with family, and friends, and everyone knew Patrick - he really was the best kind of person and example for us all on how to live and love.
Praying for strength for all of you. I am sorry I could not be there in person. Patrick was a very special part of the WD family. He will be greatly missed.
It breaks our hearts that we can’t be with you today. You and the boys have been in our thoughts all week and will continue to do so. We love you and are holding you close to our hearts. Sending love and hugs…
