FALMOUTH – With a precious smile, Patrick Stephen Conley, “Rally Boy” passed away peacefully and courageously on Nov. 12, surrounded by his family at home.

He was born Sept. 18, 1992. Patrick was a magnetic young man who inspired all who were blessed to know him, and his spirit brought out the best in everyone he encountered. He could brighten a room with his bald head and contagious smile or his sweet, silent, gentle presence. He was a rare glimmer of hope and a gift to us all.

Patrick was a sophomore at Falmouth High School, where he was embraced by his classmates and teachers. He was one of Slugger’s Kids for The Strike Out Cancer in Kids program. He loved “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” and sang as often as possible.

Additionally, he enjoyed horseback riding, swimming, music, and his cat Tek snuggling close to his side. Patrick’s happiest moments were spent with his family and his special, compassionate brothers Ryan and Griffin. He was their lucky charm to win championship games, score goals and silently cheer them on.

This beautiful blue eyed boy taught us so much about the strength of children, faith, beating the odds, the rewards of never giving up, and most of all the power of love.

Patrick is survived by his parents, Steve and Jane (Kilbride) Conley of Falmouth, and his brothers, Ryan and Griffin; his grandmothers, Reola Conley and Patricia Kilbride; along with many loving aunts, uncles and cousins; and special friends.

He was predeceased by his grandfathers, Sonny Conley and Charlie Kilbride.

Our deepest thank-you to all the doctors, nurses, teachers, and care providers who always made Patrick feel so incredibly special.
