Patrick Froehling

Patrick Eli ~ "a gatherer of men for God" is what his name means. And, truly fitting for this warrior. At only 2-years-old, Patrick was a world changer, even from his hospital bed at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital where he spent 115 days. On July 15, Jesus called Patrick home so he could gain the wings he earned. Patrick was diagnosed with brain and spinal cancer. He fought as a true warrior with strength and love bringing together over 13, 000 people together in prayer on facebook and impacting even more around the world. Keith and Erin, his dad and mom, were at his bedside when he smiled as he saw Jesus. Patrick is survived by his parents, Keith and Erin Froehling, his sister Isabella and his brothers Nathaniel and Aiden. His grandparents Eugene and Yvonne Froehling of Pleasant Valley, Ny. and Dr. Louis and Grace Forte of Benton, Ky. Patrick Eli taught us a lesson of life ~ have faith, share love, and see the world through the eyes of Jesus. "Patrick, mommy and daddy will miss you very much." Patrick's Celebration of Life will be held at LifeChurch.tv in Hendersonville, Tenn. on Thursday, July 19 at 6 pm. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you make donations to the Patrick Froehling Fund in c/o First Tennessee Bank, Attn: Tish Fielden 429 W. Main, Hendersonville, TN 37075
