I was so sad to hear this, she
encouraged me several times about losing
a spouse. - Eileen Hoag

I got to know Pat on FaceBook,
but I remember her well from high
school. Sad that she lost the war, after
all the battles she survived. We also
survived our political differences, and
stayed kind and courteous throughout. No
doubt, she was one of the better ones.
RIP, my friend - Phil Domenico

kind to me while at RFA - Steve Miroy

I
knew Pat and hung out with her when we
were in Staley, doubling with our boy
fiends, movies, dances, etc.
Of course, we move on
and get on with our lives. When we saw
each other at the 45th we kind of hung
out there, she with her boyfriend and
me with Sam. She was such a sweetie
pie. We corresponded after that via
but then again, life gets in the way.
I guess she was dealing with her
cancer and the emails stopped but she
was always in my heart. Heaven has
certainly gained another angel and
while it doesn't help with the loss
and grief, she is happy with her
husband and those who have gone before
her. Life is short. Eternity is
forever. God bless - Debra Nash
