Back in '45 during "the big one", Patrick Daugherty Sr. (Big Pat) was born on April 24. Big Pat served in the U.S. Army from 1962-1965. He achieved the grade of E5. He was a graduate of the 7th Army NCO Academy while serving in Germany and was the Second Army Welter Weight Golden Gloves Champion. Upon completion of his military service, Big Pat joined the Summit County Sheriff's Office and served as a Deputy Sheriff for approximately 15 years.
He was an active member of the Fraternal Order of Police (F.O.P), Lodge 139. One of Big Pat's proudest moments came in 1984, when he became a charter member of the FOP Ohio Labor Council and the first full time Union Representative for law enforcement in the State of Ohio. He served 24 years before retiring from the FOP at age 63. In addition to Big Pat's professional career, he volunteered countless hours as a coach for Hot Stove, North High School Girls basketball and several AAU basketball teams that competed nationally.
On July 27, 2018, Big Pat achieved his greatest accomplishment by joining the company of angels and saints in heaven. He was preceded in death by his mother, Mary; his siblings, Dennis, Leonard, Michael and Maggie; and grandson, Larry. He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 44 years, Mary Lou; children, Shaun, Kelly, Shannon, Frank (Julia), Angela (Sean), Patrick (Latassha) and Kathryn; grandchildren, Anthony, Frankie Jr., MacKenzie, Sierra, Joe, Kierra, Dominic and Donovan; as well as many loving nieces, nephews, family members and friends.
