I viewed Stephen as one of the brightest lights in a new generation of railway museum leaders. He was also a warm, witty, wonderful human being. His friends and colleagues here at American Association of Museums will miss him very much. |

I was saddened to read that Stephen Patrick had passed away. He was an all-around nice guy who brought many a laugh, chortle or smile to our faces. My condolences to his partner and family. Rick Borgwardt |

Stephen's death is a loss to all of us. He was a great member of the Board of Association of Railway Museums and was serving as its Vice-President. Stephen was a participant in a number of the changes that ARM has made in the last few years. |

Sad to hear of the passing of yet another leading figure in our cause. 2007 has not been a kind year, first losing Walter Grey and now Stephen. |

A comprehensive account of Stephen's career from the newspaper in Bowie, MD, where he was chief of the City of Bowie Museums: http://www.bowieblade.com/vault/cgi-bin/bowie/view/2007B/08/30-43.HTM I attended Stephen's memorial today. It was packed with friends from the many communities of which he was an valued member, ranging from museums, to railway preservation people, to antique car enthusiasts, and much more. |
