I just heard from his wife that he was in an accident and broke his neck and shoulder. Many of you know Fink and he is a great guy. Please take a moment. BR Edit: This was posted by Erin on another forum SkateFink hangs out at "Hey Ya'll . I am Mrs. Skate Fink, aka Erin. Pat was in an auto altercation today and wound up in Baltimore at Shock Trauma instead of the intended Jalopy Showdown in PA. He broke his neck and shoulder and is generally banged up. Pat is a very lucky man tonight with full feeling and mobility but he could use some prayers, good wishes and bro-loving. Thanks for being there for him and providing him countless hours of enjoyment. I'll probably know more tomorrow regarding inpending surgery and will keep you posted..."
I don't actually know Skatefink Pat, but I know he's "east coast local", and friends with many of the guys here. Broken neck sounds bad -- I hope he's OK. Keep us updated.
Awful news. Get well soon. Not too soon though. Only as soon them bones will mend. You're in my thoughts for sure. C
Prayers sent from Dallas area... get well wth God speed... Prayers also sent for you Erin to be strong for him right now. Take Care
All the best man, Im walking proof that a broken back (In three places) dosent mean no more walking! Hang in there brother! Doc.
Yes we are all praying for and with him. I missed him yesterday not seeing him at the gate yesterday.
Sorry to hear that man. Do everything they say. (DOCS) My mom broke 3 vertebrae in her neck years ago. The road was a bit slow but you would never guess that it ever happened today. Prayers sent
