  1. I was looking for a family member memorial when I saw that Pat had pased away. I am so sorry I was unaware of her passing until right now. Pat was just the greatest. What a sweet spirit and loving mom and grandma. Pat and I have known each other for about 50+ years and I have always admired her. Pat always took the high road. We would see you at the Pantry during the time Pat was so sick. She never complained. What a strong and loving person she was. I know God is rewarding her in heaven for the life she lived. I will miss her. God bless all her family.
