Farewell Mr. Beau the Clown

On May 9th, 2012, Pat Donohue, known throughout the north-east as Mr. Beau the Clown, suffered a heart attack and was pronounced dead at 3:55pm at Rochester General Hospital. Pat Donohue entertained children and adults of all ages for nearly 36 years. His talent for encouraging laughter was only matched by his ardent attempt to make clowning
"not scary."

As part of his 36 year reign, Pat Donohue transformed into Mr. Beau the Clown before the eyes of his audiences. It was through this transformation that Pat Donohue captured peoples' hearts and encouraged them to laugh inside and out.

Pat Donohue is succeeded by his beautiful wife of 32 years, Kathy, and his five proud sons, Michael, Andrew, Patrick, Brian, and Chris. Pat Donohue happily referred to his sons as "MAPBC."

As we look back on the life of Pat Donohue.
Loving father, caring husband, dedicated son & all round funny guy.
The tears mix in with the laughs. Goodbye Pat... Dad...
We miss you. We love you. And always will.

Kathy, Michael, Andrew, Patrick, Brian, & Chris.
