Sorry for the loss of Pat. We were next door neighbors on Orient Lane and Quinnipiac Avenue in the Montowese section of North Haven, CT. We shared many great times in the 60's to 1970. I have fond memories of her. God Bless.

So sorry to hear of the passing of cousin Pat. You always bought a ray of sun shine around you. If you had any problems nobody could tell. To the children, you have had the benefit having a great person for a mom and grandma. Pat, when you get to heaven, you and jack have a beer for me. Till we meet again, Cousin Rog

I don't know any of you as her family, other than a granddaughter-in-law, but I did know and like Pat. She was a bright spot in most eyes and had the ability to spread that magnetism to all who knew her. It is difficult to see her wink and nod that head to you in church on Saturday evening and having her gone from this world on Thursday. I truly will miss the wink and nod.
