Pat was more to me than just another face, she helped me through some of the deepest and darkest of times. I will always miss her and hope bill, zack, and adam, have the strength that i know they have to get through this time of grief .I remember practicing in the backyard and her always yelling out "zack your workin em too hard." lol. Perhaps there will be a special match and mom will be in the front seat saying "zack dont give up!" I love you pat, you are and always will be my hero. ( bryan a leahy) a.k.a. Rage

Pat and I went to school together from K through 12, and growing up with her was full of memorable times. I remember when she was chosen to recite the "Gettysburg Address" at a PTA Meeting. (fourth grade?) I still have a picture of it. I also remember that her wonderful parents were the first to let us have boy/girl parties. Then there was the "No meat on Friday thing" that I had never heard of, but that she was so adamant about. Finding her after many years when I delivered mail to M.H. was such a joy. It was like we hadn't lost touch for years! Then I transferred to another office and didn't see her for several more years. How deeply it saddened me when I read of her passing. Our birthdays were on the same week, so I will think of her often when May comes. Much sympathy to her family. I know she loved you as much as she was loved.

Bill & family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I loved Pat & have so many good memories of her. We worked together for many years & shared so many laughs. I remember when I spilled red wine on the carpet in Pat's brand new house & her laughing & saying, "don't worry about it, it's only carpet." I'll never forget when Zachary came into her life & her happiness. Pat was an absolutely wonderful person & I will miss her so much. It was such a gift to have known her.

Our family had the pleasure of meeting Pat during a very difficult time in our lives. She shined the light on our situation and focused on the wonderful things we were blessed with, our beautiful son who was at a stuggling point in his life. Her calming voice and encouraging words. She will always be in our hearts and never forgotten. She touched many lives and helped so many people. Heaven must have needed another angel! Our thoughts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.

Pat was a magnificent sister and I will miss her so very much. She had a great smile and wonderful laugh; we shared a lot of really great times. These fond memories will have to sustain me until we are together again. I am sad that we lost her at such a young age, but I know that she enjoyed her life and she made the world a better place.

To the Family of Pat Reeb and all who loved her:
I never read the paper, I mean never! I came home this morning to see the paper on the table. Some article in the C section caught my eye. I read that first page, then turned it and saw the obit's. I saw Pat's name and felt like it was familiar to me. She was very familiar to me after I read the part where she worked for Sutter/Yuba Mental Health. The light bulb went on and then I was very sad.
I was a patient of Pat's. Through the years of 2002 to 2005. I was in a group she co-ran for depression. I can't tell you how much I loved her during that time. She was so understanding, compassionate, and willing to listen. She gave me encouragement during a very dark and lonely time in my life. I am very, very sad to have just learned of her passing. I pray that God grants her family peace and serenity at this very difficult time.
Thank you Pat for your loving nature. Thank you for being a person of peace in my life. I love you and will never forget the kindness you gave to me. I can't wait to see you again in Heaven.
My prayers are with all who loved you. You left this world so much better then it ever was.
