Patrick Gorman – cousin of Dooley Division founding President Jerry Gorman

by John Costello

While visiting Reagan’s boyhood home, the docent made an offhand remark about his Irish ancestry.  We struck up a conversation and he asked where I was from. When I told him I lived in a Richmond VA suburb, he said he had family near Richmond, then mentioned that his cousin had passed away this year.  Long story short – this photo is of Patrick Gorman.
