Patrick is a special needs employee of ShopRite on Route 9, Bayville. He was struck by a car while riding his bicycle to work. Patrick is currently fighting through a broken wrist/nose and missing teeth, as well as lacerations to his head.
The ShopRite Courtesy Desk is asking for donations for Patrick for medical bills, a new bike, etc. Anything goes a long way for this dedicated employee!
Donations can be dropped off at the Courtesy Desk.
Get well Patrick!
Feel Better Soon Patrick! ❤️
Get well soon!! People seriously need to pay the hell attention!!
Is this the cart guy?! Speedy recovery
Amanda Tisch yes he is.
Darleen Mcg omg he is such a nice man i locked myself out of my car a couple years ago with my cell phone and he helped me out! He didn’t have to he just has a kind heart ♥️
Amanda Tisch agreed that’s why I believe we should all come together and help him out.
Darleen Mcg agreed.
Jenna Trushell
Aww, Patrick sorry you got hurt. ? Feel better soon, buddy! ♥️
What’s ShopRite donating?
Chris Defrancis
I hope they’re paying him while he’s in the hospital and recovery.
Ocean County Scanner News they should do at least that
Chris Defrancis I work for the Perlmutters. We’re all union. He’s allowed to collect pay thru medical leave, so long as he puts the paperwork thru.
Brittney Burns I worked for ShopRite years ago, my GFS mom works for a store and for her to get hand surgery it’s nothing short of joke, and I’m a teamster, so I know a lot about unions, the unions that have contracts with ShopRite are jokes, anyone I hear work for ShopRite or one of the unions contracted their have said the same
It wouldn’t Hurt ShopRite to open their wallet and pay for everything if not half
Ocean County Scanner News happened on their lot. Depends on what the Dominic torretto wannabe and his insurance pays
Brittney Burns who is going to help him do that?
Chris Defrancis they are known for letting good employees go after yearssss of loyal service. They give GOOD WORKERS $5 gift cards from their MYSTERY SHOPPERS LOL!!! ???a whole big $5
Paula Zygmaniak Weber I can’t stand ShopRite, I won’t ship their if I don’t have to, because he was off the clock is probably the reason they’ll use to not pay anything, but let the community themselves raise the money to help this nice guy out, it’s a shame what corporate America is like now a days
What size bike willing too help?
Helen Brown
He is an adult male.
Ocean County Scanner News ok thank you
Get well soon
? how terrible!!! Get well soon Patrick!
??
Prayers for Patrick
Sending healing prayers to Patrick
Patrick get a lawyer
Joseph Kelly ???? This is his 3rd time being hit by a car. He rides in the lane, not in the shoulder. I take it you haven’t seen him. He was also hit on Mule Rd. and left the scene and it took 3 hours to find him. A judge will be seeing all this info.

Jason Forbey and you know this how?
Jason Forbey u saw all 3 accidents or r u hearing rumors. Regardless its still ashame he got hit. The guy is special needs. At least he tries to work unlike the rest of lazy ass american people who sit in their ass and collect welfare. At least he tries. People r quick to judge get a lawyer get a lawyer. But u dont know if it was his fault or not. Were u there. If not dont bad mouth the poor guy.
Jason Forbey That is why responsible people have good insurance policy’s because even a two year old child might run out and unfortunately they may get hit by a vehicle that you own and attorneys will sought out all the other noise
Are there bicycle lanes painted in this area?
Betty Ann Fuller no
Prayers for you Patrick
I’m so sorry to hear this…saying a prayer for a quick recovery
Did he work at the shop rite on 37 previously?
no. he has always just worked at the bayville shoprite
Anna Roma-Jones the person at the TR shop rite on 37 is Chris
Omg that’s horrible.
The get the jerk who hit him??
Brad Santella accidents happen man. It was nasty weather that day. I’m sure someone didnt purposely hit him. No gu as promise they were distracted either.
The person never left the scene. Bicyclist do not pay attention, not obey laws. But neither do cars.

Brittney Poulysyn fyi gofundme takes a percentage of proceeds. ☹️
Jax Adamiec ugh that’s horrible I’ve never used it before is it a lot !?
Brittney Poulysyn

Ocean County Scanner News awesome thank you !
Ocean County Scanner News awesome thank you !
Jax Adamiec well for having the posting up
Jax Adamiec not if it’s set up properly. Also an account can be set up at TD Bank with a relative or close friend as administrator
I saw this on my way to the gym. Get well soon. ??
Prayers for his recovery!
I feel so bad for Patrick, is there a “Go Fund Me” page setup for him? I live too far away to go to the courtesy desk, and I’m sure others who don’t live nearby would love to help also
Get well soon Patrick! ❤️??
Wishing this local guy a speedy recovery. ??
Chris Irons is that Patrick from CRHS?
Michelle Ann I don’t know. Either way it’s a sad situation. I hope they set up a fundraiser. I’m sure I’ve seen him many times shopping there 1-3 times per week.
Chris Irons it is sad, after asking you I had the wrong name I was thinking of Andrew. But like you said sad situation
Get well soon Patrick. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
If he needs a new bike I can donate mine! I. Just think it needs new tires maybe
Get better Patrick!
♥️?♥️?♥️

Prayers for Patrick
Faustino Meza

Someone start a go fund me for this poor guy hope he recovers and is back
To his old happy self
Lauren Anne what he needs is a lawyer.
They should set up go fund me too
They should set up go fund me too
Jill Van Rooyen go fund me will take a percentage of the proceeds. That’s why the courtesy desk is taking donations. This way ALL of the money raised goes to him rather than having go fund me take part of it.
Get well soon Patrick ?
Get well soon Patrick ?
While he gets better a for good kid❤❤
Is there a Go Fund Me account
I’m so sorry to hear this. Patrick is a great guy. Always willing to help. Speedy Recovery.
John Losi
Did they ever catch racer x that had to speed through the lot?
Hope he gets better soon I used to ride a bike to work and had close encounters with other drivers who can’t pay attention
Should set up a go fund me site instead of handing over donations to the courtesy counter
Feel better soon Patrick! ❤
Get well soon
Will SHOPRITE BE DONATING as well as us? I prefer to be given a po box rather than giving to the courtesy desk.
Paula Zygmaniak Weber absolutely. That’s like, “let’s put a jar on the counter”
Betty Ann Fuller Bingo!!
Why is shoprite collecting donations if they won’t be helping?! Any other place to send donations?
??Prayers for a speedy recovery Patrick!!
