Motorcyclist dies in Cumberland crash
CUMBERLAND -- A 19-year-old Cumberland man died last night when he lost control of the motorcycle he was driving and crashed on West Wrentham Road, according to the Cumberland police.
Patrick R. Holmes, of Abbott Run Valley Road, was riding north with a group of riders shortly before 10 p.m. when he went off the road at a curve near Old West Wrentham Road, said Sgt. Paul Brown.
Holmes was taken to Rhode Island Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to Brown.
The police believe excessive speed was a factor in the accident. A helmet was found at the scene, but it's unclear whether Holmes was wearing it.

They say time heals all wounds...that may not be true in this case...but know it will get easier and find peace in how much Pat was loved by everyone who was lucky enough to have him in their lives.
