Supporting the Family of Patrick Coughlin

A Life Cut Too Short
With profound sadness, we announce the sudden passing of our beloved friend, husband, son, brother, and father, Patrick "Pat" Coughlin who passed unexpectedly this week at the age of 29 years old following a medical emergency. His loss has left an immeasurable void in the hearts of everyone who knew him.

A Family In Need
Pat leaves behind his loving wife and their precious 21-month-old daughter, who now face an unimaginable future without their husband and father as their pillar of support. In the midst of their overwhelming grief, the family is confronted with significant financial burdens including medical expenses, funeral costs, and long-term support of their young daughter.
How You Can Help
The purpose of this fundraiser is threefold:
1. Help cover the unexpected medical expenses from Pat's emergency medical care
2. Provides funds for funeral and memorial services
3. Create financial support for Pat's young daughter's future needs and care.

Any contributions, regardless of size, will make a meaningful difference to this family as they navigate this devastating loss. Your generosity will allow Pat's wife and family to focus on caring for their daughter and healing during this impossible time.
About Pat
Those who knew Pat will remember his sense of humor, fierce loyalty, and compassionate nature. As a graduate of Mass Maritime Academy, he embodied the values of leadership, dedication, and service. His Xaverian Brothers education instilled in him a commitment to compassion and excellence that he carried through his life. His dedication, kindness, loyalty, and unwavering spirit touched countless lives and built a tight knit community with him at its center.

Pat was also an incredible brother to his older brother and sister. He took immense pride in their accomplishments and was deeply interwoven into their lives and the families they created. He was always ready to help with a home project or wrangle his nieces and nephews at a family function. Simply put, he was ever present.

Pat's greatest pride was the life he built with his wife and the daughter they brought into this world. His girls were at the center of his universe, where he poured his heart and soul into creating a loving home filled with laughter and Joy. Pat embraced fatherhood with boundless enthusiasm, never taking a moment with his beautiful family for granted.

A Message from Friends

As Pat's close friends, we are committed to ensuring his wife and daughter are supported through this unimaginable tragedy. While nothing can fill the void left by Pat's absence, we hope to ease the financial burden so that his family can focus on healing and remembering the wonderful person he was.

Please share this fundraiser with your networks. Every share, donation, and prayer matters.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this heartbreaking time.
