Danaan invited me to play poker and maybe I might know a few of the guys. Not knowing what to expect and not wanting to come empty-handed, I brought chips and drinks.
Before I went through the side door, into the backyard, I got hit with an incredible BBQ smell. I figured it was coming from next door or something because who BBQ’s for a poker game?
But when I got into the yard I could see an incredible amount of food and his BBG’s. OMG, brisket, wings, and so many good things to eat. All made by the host, Pat. My chips never got opened.
Pat came up to me, introduced himself, took me around the tables of food, showed me where everything was and started talking to me like we’d been friends for years.
I thought maybe we’d just hit it off nicely and related well to each other. But over time, and many games, I saw that Pat treated everyone that way.
I’ll never forget what a wonderful person Pat was.
