Patrick Sean McKenna

Patrick Sean McKenna was born January 30, 1961 in Whittier, California and died January 19, 2021 in a
homeless shelter in Orange County, California following a lifelong battle with alcohol.

Pat went to Lowell High School in California and spoke fondly of riding the public bus down Beach
Boulevard to surf and hang out in Huntington Beach. He loved football and played at Utah State
University where he made the list of top 10 all-time tackles as a linebacker with 359 tackles in his college
career. Always the life of the party, often shared his story of tackling BYU’s Steve Young and promptly
receiving a penalty. Post-college, Pat worked for the family automobile business in California and
Hawaii, and then others around the country.

He was preceded in death by his father, Daniel Joseph “Mike” McKenna and his mother, Ann Stephens
Luzzi. He is remembered by his two beautiful daughters, Courtney and Meagan McKenna, his brothers
Danny McKenna and Steven Luzzi, his sisters, Tracy McKenna and Michael Widener, his ex-wife Cathy
McKenna and her family, nieces and nephews, several close friends, and the automotive industry at
large.
