Patrick Favale
Patrick Favale
Class of 1966
Army, 3 Years

I was drafted, served a tour of duty in Vietnam and was serverly wounded on Christmas Eve 1969 while handing out candy to children. While my life was challenging after I was wounded, it ended up being a blessing for me; I learned to value life and never take one day for granted, but as a gift. I just retired on 6/1/16 after spending 14 years teaching drawing, painting and digital photography in high school. Prior to my teaching career, I spend 24 years in the Property & Casualty Insurance industry attaining the position of a RVP and enjoyed a successful business career. I currently reside in Jacksonville FL, have been happily married for the past 46 years, have twin sons and I'm really enjoying life and my retirement.
