Today has been a Very sad day as we lost one of our very own in Patrick Day! Patrick was one of our guest speakers back in February and those who attended were very impressed with him. He was a credit to our sport! Our deepest prayers are with his family, his trainer Joe Higgins, Charles Conwell and promoter Lou DiBella.
