Patrick Knight, ITF, at hospital

It is with great dismay I share the sad news that Patrick Knight, ITF, author and lawyer, familyman and great friend, has been hospitalized this Thanksgiving due to a shooting. 

What is even sader is that his wife Lisa, her sister, an aunt and a six year old girl all died in the same shooting. I am not even able to grasp the full aspects of such a tragedy. All I can do is send my prayers and warm regards, as I recall the great moments we spent together in Budapest and later in Tunisia. 

Lisa was a girl with great humor, she was very smart and a truly caring person. If you needed someone to care, she was the one to turn to. Lisa and Patrick made a perfect couple, hard working, sharing and caring. Together they showed me that true love conquers anything. 

My thoughts and prayers goes to you now, Patrick. If there is anything at all I can do for you, I will consider it a great honor.

It may look impossible at this point, but I promise you, you will come out stronger.
