3647 Pat Baranski (Abuse, Suicidal, Tragedy, Rehabilitation) Pat’s dad left his mother to raise him and his siblings alone. Her anger manifested itself in beating her children, and Pat often wondered if life was worth living. In fact, as a young teenager, he contemplated jumping off a bridge near the freeway multiple times. But he also talked to God and heard God respond. As a high schooler, two big events shifted his outlook on life: he fell in love and he got chosen for a select singing group. Pat threw himself into these new adventures and grew to be a talented singer, performing in many Off-Broadway shows. He and his wife started a family of their own and he was able to show them the love he had not received as a child. But a life-threatening accident changed everything, forcing Pat to find the strength to begin again and rely on God and the faith of his community in brand new ways.
