I was heartbroken when I heard earlier. Such a kind and wonderful person, who never said a bad word about anyone. Rest In Peace, my friend.

Big Daddy, Pat McComis.

I knew Pat, his parents, and family from frosh year.  Our parents were friends too.

Pat was a rable rouser, extrodinare. The sh1t he gave Flo, the dorm Czar at Schroeder was epic. 

Pat and his parents loved Marquette. Ann and Chuck donated to the Al, and Pat has an endowed athletic scholarship to honor his mom and dad.

Beyond that, Pat and his parents were incredible regular people.  His dad flew a Dauntless at the battle of Midway.  He also earned decorations for his part in Taffy 3. Look it up.

Pat, for his part, raised a family, then adopted 4 brothers from inner city Milwaukee, and made them his sons.  Outstanding young men.

My heart goes out to his bride, Ronda.  Ronda and Pat, that’s a story for another day!

Sorry if my spelling and grammar is is off, just a little weepy right now.  I’m hopeful Pat saw my last text to him last week....a picture of a Marquette Special with cheese and onions.   No sh1t.

Pat was an important part of the Underboard. The UB misses you Pat!

RIP, say hi to Al and Blondie for me.

Great post, Jeff. Never met BD but he was always very kind when we communicated. Sounds like your friend was truly a remarkable man.

Lol.  Maybe we should all chip in for a funeral wreath that says that on the ribbon.

Yes, THE big daddy.  The guy that the "fans" on the board drove off.  RIP BD.

Edit:  not accusing you, jesmu.

Sad news. I did not know him and I was surprised to see who he was. I know three of his siblings and had met his parents. His father's story was amazing. A World War II hero.

There are a lot of former posters here, BD among the best. But we're all still MU family.  Good evening all.

BD was the man.  He will be missed by many.   

BD was a religious man, and he would appreciate your prayers for the repose of his soul and the comfort of his family and friends. 

Chili is a man who brings people together. Chili, thank you for bringing me to BD, even if it was for too brief a time.
