So sorry to hear about Pat's passing. My condolences to all his family. I didn't know Pat but he was a 3rd (also a 5th) cousin of mine. I came across him while doing family tree.

In loving memory of Patrick Michael Fortune who sadly passed away on 9th July 2020 aged 74 years.
Pat was the first born son of Edgar and Eileen Fortune and the elder brother of Tom, Gerry, Cameron and Gay. Sadly Edgar, Eileen and Cameron have since passed away.
Pat was born in Guildford, Surrey in 1946.
Pat joined the Royal Airforce as an Aircraft Engineer at 17 years of age.
During 1965 Pat met Monique Green.
In 1968 Pat & Monique got married and then went on to have two children; Stuart and Cameron.
Pat enjoyed many overseas tours with the RAF, the family were stationed in Germany on several occasions with their final overseas posting being almost four years in Hong Kong. Pat’s final posting was at RAF Waddington on the Sentry Line Flight where he made many friends with whom he remained in contact with following his retirement in 2001.
Pat enjoyed social and family gatherings, he was very much at home tending to a BBQ whilst nursing a beer or two. He was a music lover and enjoyed holidays abroad with Monique.
Pat liked going on walks with Monique and family, often holidaying with his Siblings. He liked to relax with a Gin & Tonic whilst watching old television episodes.
Pat was a loving husband, brother, father and grandfather (he preferred to be called Paps) - he was taken unexpectedly from us all and will be dearly missed.
