Happy New Year!

06/06/2025

June 6, 1985.
It’s hard to believe it’s been 40 years since the day I lost my father JamesEdward Patterson. I was just twelve years old. In many ways, that day marked the end of my childhood. There were so many things I didn’t get to say… so many moments we never got to share.

I’ve missed him every day since. Missed his voice. His guidance. The way he coached me, taught me, and just showed up. I’ve carried his memory with me through every stage of life especially when I became a father myself.

As painful as his absence has been, it shaped who I am. Losing him taught me to value time, presence, and the power of simply being there. His death left a void, but it also lit a fire in me to be the kind of father Isaac would never have to live without at least not too soon.

I've coached Isaac for years, but I didn't have that experience with my dad because he said he wanted to always be my dad and not blur the lines of being my coach. I wish I had that opportunity because I saw how his players enjoyed being coached by him and the stories they would tell about him when they were grown showed the respect that they had for my dad.
What I learned from those conversations and what I remember is to be present, so for Isaac I am present, even on the hard days. I tell him I love him. I listen. I try to be the father I wished I had for longer. And in those moments, I feel my dad’s legacy living on not just in memory, but in the way I love and lead.

It’s been 40 years, Dad. And I still carry you with me.

Cancer Can’t Kill Love

When I was 12 years old, I experienced a loss that forever changed my life. My father, my hero, passed away after battling cancer. It was a devastating time, filled with confusion, pain, and the heartbreak of losing someone I loved deeply. But even in the midst of that pain, I learned a lesson that has stayed with me to this day: cancer can take a person, but it cannot kill the love they leave behind.

My father was more than just my dad—he was my coach, my mentor, and my example of strength and resilience. Even as cancer fought to weaken him, his love for me and our family never wavered. He taught me lessons about life, character, and perseverance, lessons I carry with me and now pass down to my own son, Isaac.

Though cancer took my father’s physical presence, it didn’t take the bond we shared. It didn’t take the memories of him cheering me on at games, offering words of wisdom, or simply being there when I needed him. And it never will.

Love is eternal. It’s stronger than any disease, deeper than any grief, and more powerful than death itself. My father’s love lives on in me, in the way I live my life, and in the way I strive to honor his memory by being a loving father, coach, and mentor to my own family.

For anyone going through a similar loss, I want to remind you: the pain is real, but so is the love. Cancer may have taken my dad from this world, but it could never touch the love he gave me. That love remains, unbroken and undefeated.
