Pati and I shared a big white house on Boca Ciega Bay. I lived upstairs and she lived on the ground level. When she wasn't on deadline we hung out by the pool, plotted adventures and had memorable fun times. Her beloved puppies were delightful. The beach community has lost a valuable supporter and friend. She will be missed.

Pati has been a wonder friend and a huge part of our community ~ her smile and generosity was infecticious. The beaches will not quite be the same. May the memories of Pati and the love she shared surround us all.
