Thoughts and prayers are with the Gordon family and friends. Pat will be sadly missed as a friend and a co-worker at UBWPAD. Her spirit, wit and humor was a delight and she always gave of herself to others.

Herb,Tom,Donnara,Jeff and Monique:

All of you will hold a very special place in my heart. Knowing the pain that you have in your hearts. I have lost a very dear friend and will have an empty place in my heart. Pat and I had many laughs and we would tease each other so very much. I know she will be up there watching all of us and we will meet her someday. It just will not be the same here at UBWPAD without her. I look over at her desk everyday and think of the things we used to do together to the people that would walk into the office. We were a team. What she didn't come up with I did. She was know as the pitbull..........we laughed over that.
I have many beautiful thoughts in my heart that she has planted.
She was a wonderful lady.
May God Bless all of you.

To the Family of Our Dear Friend Pat, some thought of Pat as a mother, grandmother, and some as one of the three stooges, I met Pat many years ago when I visited the UBWPAD plant and felt as if I had been a friend for years, jokes, laughs all in that first meeting, well since then I have thought of the three wonderful ladies in the office at the plant as the "Three Stooges" and I could always hear the laughter in their voice and feel the love and friendship in the room. I know Pat is in a peaceful place without suffering or pain, and she is looking down at all of us from afar still laughing.

To Pat's family, may these very difficult days be filled with thoughts and loving memories of Pat, and to Judy (stooge #3) my thoughts are with you, and finally to my dear friend, Jan(stooge #1) May God Bless you and guide you through the tough days ahead.
God Bless all of you now and forever.

Dear Herbie, Tommy, Jeff, Donnarae, Monique, Matthew and Ryan

My prayers and thoughts are with each of you in Pat's passing. She was such a good friend, fellow co-worker and compassionate person. It was always such a pleasure to work with her as she always lightened our hearts, made us laugh and kept us all going.

She is going to be missed so much every day that I come to work. It just will never be the same here. I treasure all of our laughs and wonderful times we have had for years and those thoughts will remain in my heart.

God Bless each of you.
